Marchionini’s Kubrick-esque photographs are reminiscent of Hixson’s work, in which both artists depend on…

By reducing these placeholders to their barest representations, Forsyth’s intention is…

Sheung Yiu: Urban / Nature

Growing up in a metropolitan city, I feel very distanced from nature. Nature has always been a rare and fragmental existence in post-industrial urban cities.

Within these worlds time and space are represented and interpreted.  Utilizing imagery that documents the process of decay, transient states of being are reassembled in non-linear ways. Non-linear composition becomes…

Malcolm Easton: Restorations

Focusing on fragile domestic objects, I explore the aesthetics of breakage and repair. I use unconventional – often whimsical — repair techniques. Through lighting I try to emphasize the induced irregularities, the harsh edges and the missing fragments. My camera captures an impression of the current state, which is a work in progress. The piece…

Trey Wright's cut out aesthetic.

“I start by quickly flipping through a magazine and choosing the pieces that catch my eye because of the sources use of color, shape or pattern.
