Corey Wellik uses wood and wooden furniture to create experiences of community- and self-belonging, resilience, and liberation. They build work inspired by our collective connection to land and place. Wellik earned a degree in Plant and Soil Ecology from the University of Michigan, rooting their practice in a deep connection to the land. After years of teaching, learning, playing with wood, growing food, and growing community in Detroit, they are currently a Master of Fine Arts candidate in the Woodworking and Furniture Design area at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison Art MFA Qualifier Exhibition season continues with Corey Wellik’s art exhibition. The qualifier solo exhibitions are presented by the graduate students during their fourth semester as the evaluation review of their creative work to qualify for advancement in the MFA program. Come view the work and research by our newest cohort of developing artists!
