Corey Pemberton: Living Well opened at Mint Museum Uptown on September 19 and runs through January 31, 2027. The exhibition brings more than 70 works by the Los Angeles-based artist to Charlotte, spanning glass, painting, and mixed media.
Everyday objects, deeper stories
Pemberton’s work asks what the things we keep at home can carry: memory, identity, care, and the histories of the people who made or used them. In his hands, familiar forms invite a second look. The exhibition offers visitors time to spend with those ideas across its fall and winter run.
The Mint welcomed the show with a public celebration and vendor market on opening day. Visit the exhibition page for the work on view and the museum for visiting hours and programs.
