Mary Jo Bole is currently an artist-in-residence in the Video/Film lab at the Wexner Center for the Arts. Bole has made her work in geologic materials, printmaking, artist books, and is now working on a feature-length biographical film essay about her life, work, and ancestor syndrome titled “Family White Elephants.” She is a widely exhibited artist who has shown her works in the United States, Europe, and Russia. She is an emeritus professor from the Ohio State University Department of Art.  Her resources include gallows humor, memento mori, Victorian left-over culture, crumbling post-industrial Cleveland, curious objects and cemeteries, a dose of punk, the gilded age, and Lake Erie. Her website (more of an inventory) is maryjobole.com.
