“Cascade and Cadence” by Derrick Velasquez

“My work places sculpture and installation in conversation with architecture and design. My focus on the modern aesthetics and ornamentation of contemporary residential buildings created in urban developments critiques the social, political and economic forces affecting our everyday psychological experience within a city by looking at the physical spaces we occupy … (my) works come in the form of large-scale installations and sculptures as well as photography, collage and other media …”

The Amaranthine Room Shana McCaw and Brent Budsberg

Shana McCaw and Brent Budsberg have created a large-scale installation made from remnants and surplus materials from their studio production. Like amaranth, a flowering plant that self-sows through a prolific production of seed, the components of the installation are also “generative objects.” A bespoke drawing table and a screened meditation hut are designed to support the creative process and produce the conditions necessary for new ideas to emerge.

Coloring sheets and select mediums will be available for the kids, as well as the adults, to express your inner Picasso! Can’t wait to see you — and don’t forget to bring your 4-legged artists as they are welcome as well.

“My Afro’s Future” Reginald Baylor

The exhibition title ”My Afro’s Future” is an invitation to explore the boundaries between creation and deconstruction, between the whole and its parts. This exhibition is a testament to the Studio’s inclusion of machine fabrication and its ability to infuse cold, calculated processes with a sense of organic beauty and emotional depth. Whether through intricate patterns, bold geometries, or subtle textural variations, the art invites viewers to engage with these works that are intellectual and poetic in dimension, is timeless and bears repeated viewing over time, is appealing, and is widely accepted by audiences.
