The Solo Exhibition Streptomyces by MiNHi England, Netflix Blown Away Series 3 Finalist, explores the paradox of Streptomyces bacteria as a metaphor for grief. Through material transformations represented in glass, MiNHi’s artwork reflects how loss, illness, and love can metabolize decay into survival. The exhibition is on view March 6-May 9, 2026 at Foci MCGA.

This event is supported by grant funding from the Art Alliance for Contemporary Glass (AACG).
