Guilty Pleasures by Brittany Coburn
2026-02-12 16:00 - 20:00, 2026-02-13 16:00 - 20:00, 2026-02-14 16:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | McEachern Art Center, 332 2nd Street, Macon, 31201
The MAC presents Guilty Pleasures by Brittany Coburn, an exhibition that explores the vices, comforts, and coping mechanisms we carry with us as we navigate the complexities of living in the world we love. Functioning both as a new body of work and a retrospective of Coburn’s ongoing research into mental health, Guilty Pleasures examines how seemingly indulgent habits—often dismissed as weaknesses—can instead serve as tools for survival, self-soothing, and resilience. Content Advisory: This exhibition includes mature imagery involving tobacco, drugs, medicine, and related themes. Viewer discretion advised.
