In her latest body of work, Christine Kwon explores translucency as both material and metaphor through layered acrylic paintings on unprimed canvas. Fields of color drift between revelation and concealment, while textured elements such as colored sand and suspended silkscreen create compositions that feel both atmospheric and tactile. Guided by an intuitive process, Kwon’s works navigate the space between structure and softness, presence and disappearance, revealing subtle threads of inherited memory and cultural identity that emerge gradually through layered form and gesture.

In her latest collection, Sarah York explores the enduring bond between horse and human through compositions that are both restrained and deeply evocative. Guided by a minimalist approach to Western folk surrealism, York distills her subjects into simplified forms and nuanced color palettes that reflect themes of strength, stillness, and quiet resilience. Balancing presence with vulnerability, the works become meditations on grounding, self-trust, and the power of inhabiting one’s place fully.

In her latest collection, Emily Tingey explores the quiet space between emotional obscurity and moments of clarity, using softened landscapes, rippling water, and delicate floral forms as pathways back to presence. Inspired by fog-covered terrain and the contained environments of greenhouses, Tingey’s atmospheric compositions reflect on themes of protection, transformation, and release. Balancing minimalism with emotional depth, the works capture the delicate process of moving through uncertainty toward renewal, where fleeting moments of beauty become small acts of grounding and self-recognition.

In her latest collection, Victoria Manganiello examines the relationship between material and human experience through a synthesis of traditional textile techniques and computational processes. Working with hand-spun yarns, custom dyes, and woven structures, she treats textiles as both code and language—linking material production to broader systems of communication and history. Drawing on abstraction informed by geography and mapping, her work creates immersive environments that connect past and present, offering speculative reflections on the future of material and cultural systems.

In his latest collection, exit paintings, Michael Wall explores the intersection of storytelling and technology, reflecting on a moment where human presence begins to shift into digital space. Figures appear as traces or remnants, suggesting identities shaped—and diminished—by virtual existence. Through a blend of traditional and new media, Wall considers how immersion in digital environments alters perception, memory, and connection, offering a quiet meditation on the convergence of physical and virtual worlds.

In her latest collection, Ali Pilli develops an intuitive practice centered on layered surfaces, using washes of paint and chalk to evoke both lived experience and the inner self. Her compositions move between subtlety and boldness, unfolding in soft, atmospheric gradients that balance immediacy with quiet depth. Through a refined color field language, Pilli explores memory, nostalgia, and evolving ideas of femininity and power, creating suspended emotional spaces where stillness and sensory experience converge.

In her latest collection, Irinka Talakhadze conjures a world that is both magical and uncanny, where the familiar shifts just beyond recognition. Figures emerge through layered color and diffused light, their presence hovering between intimacy and ambiguity. Through fluid brushwork and subtle distortion, Talakhadze blurs the line between dream and reality, revealing a deeper, more psychological form of realism. The works linger like half-remembered visions—quietly unsettling yet deeply absorbing.
