ARTISTS:

Alphonzo Solorzano:
Recent mixed media works and wall installation titled The Future was Now uses iconography from early 1900′s auto ads. Vintage images, typoghrapghy, and slogans are used to create an alternate history to explore and challenge our interpretation of time and progress.

Daniel Massey:
Light Speak is an installation that transmits images through the medium of light. Images are captured outside throughout the day, and relayed as morse code pulses through a series of distributed models. Pixel by pixel, the images are reconstructed.

Gabriel Dunne:
Created with custom displays and original software, Gabriel’s works explore micro and macro systems of nature, technology, and perception.

Miles Stemper:
Miles uses the digitization of brushstrokes to create a series of abstracted icon paintings. Geometry forms the structure of these works because it is dictated by the same criteria of function communication as technology: geometry is efficiency of form, an articulate representation of space

Ryan Alexander:
Ryan’s work is a combination of ideas and systems created in the last two years. Laser fabrication and projection mapping are used to create a glowing gourd.
