Evansville Arts Coalition is pleased to present work by Victoria McWane-Creek and Jared Internet in the EAC Gallery for the month of July.
Victoria McWane-Creek
Victoria McWane-Creek is a spoken word artist and word craft practitioner whose work is rooted in lineage, spirituality, and deep reflection. A great-granddaughter, granddaughter, daughter, partner, and parent, Victoria honors those who came before while creating space for presence, truth, and shared light.
Through language, Victoria builds community—using voice as a vessel for love, remembrance, and possibility. Her work invites us to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with ourselves and one another. Her hope is that her work creates space for dwelling, for lingering with language long enough to feel its weight, its warmth, its possibility. Victoria is a member of the 2025–26 BIPOC Artist Cohort with the Lake Region Arts Council, a nine-month professional development program supporting artists as they identify and advance their creative and professional goals. This program is made possible with support from the McKnight Foundation.
Jared Internet
Jared Internet is a photographic artist whose work blends photography, collage, and digital manipulation to create evocative visual compositions. Drawing from both human emotion and elements of the natural world, he constructs imagery that prioritizes interpretation over explanation. A graduate of the University of Minnesota Duluth, where he studied sociology and mixed-media arts, Jared brings an understanding of human experience and visual communication to his artistic practice. His work embraces ambiguity, inviting viewers to form their own meanings rather than directing them toward a specific narrative or message.
Jared is married to Maiya, and together they are raising their two lovely girls, Maeve and Fiona, on their hobby farm in Buffalo. He currently works full-time as a lead photographer and designer at Zahler Photography. Passionate about living intentionally, Jared is an advocate for loving life, pursuing meaningful experiences, and doing what you love. His July exhibition features photographic prints that explore the intersection of nature, emotion, and imagination through layered photographic collage.
This exhibition runs from July 3 through July 31 and may be seen during regular Gallery hours on Thursdays from 3:30-6:30 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m.. to 2:00 p.m. Evansville Art Center is located at 111 Main Street in Evansville, MN and is handicap accessible.
