Michael Jordan Bonema, also known as MIKE, is one of the most important hip-hop artists in 2025. I say hip-hop artist because Bonema is not only a studied rapper, but also a talented producer and visionary. If you haven’t heard of MIKE, that is no fault of your own, for his discography has been largely overlooked within wider hip-hop culture. His niche is one of warm bit-crushed beats and confessional yet murky vignettes.
On Tuesday, Feb. 4 at 4:30 p.m., Lawrence University hosted an artist talk by three of the four artists whose works are currently displayed in the Kohler Gallery in the Wriston Art Galleries. Each artist served as a Uihlein Fellow in Studio Art at Lawrence University, making this gallery show a reunion of sorts. The event was about 45 minutes long in total: the artist talk was followed by a short Q&A with the artists and ended with a reception in the Wriston lobby.
