During the summer of 2015 Benjamin Craig (MFA 2016, Fellow 2017), Daniela Izaguirre (MFA 2016), Sophia Kayafas (MFA 2016, Fellow 2017), and Taylor Schultek (MFA 2016) participated in a six-week Artist-in-Residence Program on the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing campus. At the end of the residency all four artists participated in the group exhibition at 798. This exhibition includes some of the work created during or attributed to their residency experience.
