As artists and architects, we’re fascinated by the compelling harmony in contrasts like constraint and freedom, boundaries and breakthroughs, achieving equilibrium in art and space through opposition, unveiling potential in both confinement and liberation.

My artwork is part of a cyanotype print series for which I used hand-picked wild plants as subject matter. My aim was to highlight the aesthetic attributes of these plants which often times are only seen as noxious weeds.
October Reflections Photographic Weaving
50 Miranda Maher
I combine materials: ‘ready-made’ decorative papers, historical maps, or images with my ink drawing. I combine ideas that conflict. In “Wild Rivers” I map Earth’s rivers in a decorative, rambunctious way with titles full of personality…using human love of things sparkly and charming to suggest these rivers are alive… but under the playfulness is a connection to old cultures’ honoring of the aliveness of Earth’s waters.

This quilt is made of the sticky notes that helped me survive personal and collective loss over the past three years. Patchworking has always been a way of turning mundane fragments into something warm, something beautiful.
54 Nathan Meltz
This is the first in a series of studies of the magic automaton summoned to protect the disenfranchised. Manufactured out of clay and sorcery in the 16th century, the original golem Yosef set out to protect the persecuted Jews of Prague. Where would a 21st Golem manifest? Who would he protect?

Cuban revolutionary Fidel Castro and many followers were imprisoned here where he wrote his collective defense speech for all. The revolution, its leaders, and its politics outlived the prison. Printed on archival paper, framed, matted, and signed as part of a numbered limited edition.
52 Denise Marshall
I’m a photographic weaver. I deconstruct my photographs and weave them back together using different fine art papers. This helps to create innovative effects with the weave creating new art.
I am a realist artist who draws from direct observation. With the ballpoint pen, I have to be thoughtful about my drawing choices but accepting of the results.
