Michael Ruiz
Michael Ruiz reveals the origins of everyday through latent imagery and cultural juxtaposition. The beautiful decay that he explores in his multi-disciplinary art practice speaks of the layers and experiences that connect with the personal memories that everyday objects bring to mind for each of us.
The Resonance Of Loss
Adriene Hughes
The Resonance of Loss is a project about the spiritual expression of a disappearing Greenland mediated through the visual language of ice and abstract form. In this series I reference 2-D animated design elements as the physical presence of wind, motion and the spiritual in nature.
