WMG’s Project Space, at 1332 S. Halsted in Chicago, is dedicated to experimentation, process, and dialogue. Unlike formal gallery shows, the Project Space invites artists to share unfinished ideas, evolving works, and interactive components that encourage visitor participation. It is a place where art is not only seen but also experienced as a living conversation between artist and audience.

This solo installation by Chicago artist PōCHIS, explores the exhilaration, fragility, and lingering impact of coming-of-age friendships. Running from August 30 - September 27, 2025.

In this exhibition PōCHIS shared her sketches, notes, underpaintings, and influences. Visitors could see how she wrote and edited her short essays. Included were books of artists who influenced her style and content.

The exhibition also included an interactive installation. PōCHIS asked visitors to participate in the storytelling and to think about coming-of-age friendships. Who were the friends who shaped you but slipped out of your life? Visitors used post-its and stickers to explore their “Lisas.”
