JEFF HUCKLEBERRY + VELA PHELAN [BOSTON, MA]
Jeff Huckleberry and Vela Phelan have been collaborating since 1998. They are connected by a sureal network of intuition, which guides them into the unknown . Jeff and Vela preselect the objects needed to activate the moment and all other is left to chance.
�Their work offers up a raw, unpredictable and destabilizing encounter� Paul Couillard 2006
MILES PFLANZ [NYC]
Miles Pflanz practices subversive site specific work usually in groups in and around NYC. Trespassing, humor, walking, speech, eroticism, and menace are employed to make everyday life slightly askew.
Miles Pflanz:DANIELLE FISCHER [ISRAEL]
In the movement of everyday life I find complex beauty and decay. The water reflecting a chair through a plastic bottle, the paint peeling off with mildew on my building, I discover a color I have not yet seen. Mosaics of colors, sounds and forms enter my compositions distilled through my imagination and memories. I listen to the silence and the sounds surrounding me. I await these encounters when I stand on the threshold not exactly in and not exactly out. I wait for those moments where I can explore the in-between space of things that are at the same instance foreign and familiar. Tilting my head and moving the lens of my eye or camera I try to capture an expression of the world.
In my work I look to portray a visual language. The in-between space of a floating area. An area where something is in the air and on the water but at the same time does not rest on any one end. A surface that is barely felt but there. I am looking through photography video and painting on not modular canvas shapes to express this space of enigma I encounter with curiosity and question.
