The Swan Coach House Gallery is pleased to present Spirit Object, a painting, sculpture and installation exhibition featuring artists Kimberly Fulton Orozco and Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya. The exhibition opens on Thursday, August 6 from 6 - 9 pm and will be on view through September 17. Spirit Object is curated by guest curator Jiha Moon.

Spirit Object is a two-person exhibition that explores the meaningful transformation and translation of objecthood through the work of interdisciplinary artists Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya and Kimberly Fulton Orozco. Deeply rooted in the Atlanta community while maintaining national careers, both artists introduce new bodies of work through painting, assemblage sculpture, and site-specific installation.

The title Spirit Object comes from the way both artists utilize found objects as a medium, bringing a sense of familiarity while also evoking a spiritual presence. They interpret objects as carriers of migration, material memory, intergenerational connection, inheritance, and community. Ultimately, their work highlights the spiritual dimensions of human experience, expressed with tenderness and sensitivity through their chosen objects and materials.

This exhibition is sponsored by The Sara Giles Moore Foundation.
