Our annual Suzy Greenberg MFA Exhibition is up between now and March 26th, 2022, this year Juried by Assistant Curator of Contemporary Art and Coordinator of the Minnesota Exhibition Program at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Nicole Soukup. 2022 marks our 20th year of exhibiting MFA candidates, and this the first year we have extended this opportunity to both MFA programs at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and the University of Minnesota.
Please enjoy this series of interviews with the selected artists for this exhibition! Today we're talking to ceramicist and sculptor, Cody Hilleboe, who is a current MFA candidate at the University of Minnesota.
Squishy and Constricted, Cody Hilleboe, 2020
Where do you hail from?
I grew up and went to college in Missoula Montana. But, more recently I moved to the Midwest from Taos New Mexico.
What are some things you like about your practice? What kickstarts things in the studio for you?
Meditation, moving, placing different pieces of sculptures on top of others until something happens that’s sets me in motion.
Slope Game challenges players to maintain control at high speeds, making it a perfect test of reflexes and timing.
I really enjoyed this post because it felt informative without being repetitive. Every section added something useful, and the overall writing was easy to follow. Thank you for taking the time to create such a thoughtful article. I learned a few new things and will definitely come back for more content. ok win app
I loved reading about your process, Cody—especially how “Squishy and Constricted” plays with that feeling of being held in by the material itself. It’s also really nice that the exhibition opened up to both MCAD and UMN for the 20th year. By the way, I keep a free recipe site for late-night cravings I like to share: https://foodnevercomes.net/
I downloaded the jalwa games today, and the installation process went smoothly on my phone.
Playing games can sharpen focus, encourage teamwork, and create memorable moments with friends or family. Every session brings new challenges, rewarding patience, practice, and smart choices. Many players also enjoy daman because it combines simple rules with exciting rounds. Whether competing casually or aiming for personal improvement, staying calm and consistent often leads to better results. Balanced play, regular breaks, and respectful behavior help everyone enjoy the experience while building confidence, quick thinking, lasting friendships, and positive memories through shared fun every single day together with cheerful spirits always ahead.
