Art and Artists details

Waves for Generations

by Angie Mendoza Tudares

Installation

Teaching kids of varying ages, I often think of their future. I ask myself, what will they care about and what problems will they tackle? What will the world look like in 10 years? Now, more than ever is a time to pause and reflect. As we stand in the middle of a complex and chaotic world, it’s important to imagine where we are headed. Young people need us and we all need each other so humanity has a chance at life. You cannot do all the good that the world needs. But the world needs all the good that you can do.

For this piece She has sewn a snare trap for starlight, a ‘Ghost Vessel’ to allure the light from blazinspace’s visuals and entrap it within their crystal containers. Blazinspace is a pseudonym for the artist Gardenia Theroux. They are an adept digital painter, and a VJ who mixes imagery past and present to tell stories with the juxtaposition of sound and shapes.

Source of Light

by Anika Goyal

Installation

Anika’s inspiration is deeply rooted in her connection with nature. As an oil artist, she is drawn to the intricate beauty of flowers, the vastness of landscapes, and the patterns of sky. The art piece – “Source of Light” intertwines nature’s beauty with multi-colored lanterns. Adorning these lanterns are butterflies and birds, painted with delicate details. Against the backdrop of majestic mountains and trees, the lanterns scatter an enchanting glow. The artwork illuminates not just the canvas, but our perception of the interplay between human imagination and the timeless beauty of nature.

A F T E R G L O W

by Therese Gietler

Twilight inspires my art, where Afterglow trees emit a radiant glow like a forest’s last breath at sunset. Beneath, Mycorrhizae connect trees, conduits for whispered twilight dialogues—sharing secrets, ancient tales, and timeless wisdom, ensuring collective security through the night.

Glow 2

by Rob Angus

Projection and Sound

I am interested in the convergence of time and happenstance, and the aesthetic qualities of things that would normally go unnoticed. I shoot photos and videos of clouds, plants, water, lights, shadows, graffiti, and other stuff I see around me on my iPhone, and process and edit them in Adobe Premier to create my videos.

Dragon Dreams 

by Amber Raven

Installation

Inspired by the likes of Pierre et Gilles and Hayao Miyazaki, Amber Raven has created a magical dreamscape for the Obsidian Dragons. Obsidian was used by ancient Aztecs for many things, including mirrors. Obsidian mirrors were used to conjure visions and see divine prophecies and this skyscape is one of those visions.  

Lone Survivor

Installation

A neon artist in Seattle, WA, Scott’s three-dimensional works utilize light, reflection, and patterns to create abstract forms that shift with perspective. He is currently working on a series of objects coated in silver and etched with patterns to allow light to be blocked, reflected, and transmitted in novel ways.
