About The Artists

Kyra Garrigue is an electronic media artist who combines her background in classical music and photography to create audio- visual installations and single channel video pieces. Garrigue describes her work as transitory impressions, the distortion of memory and the objectification of the intangible are often the subjects of her work. Garrigue is interested in taking fleeting moments and memories, and giving them form though recognizable imagery that morphs over time, thus referencing the ephemeral nature of our perceptions.

David Prusko works with idea-based art where the concept is paramount to the piece. Executing in a wide range of media that includes performance, video, computer generated motion graphics, as well as the traditional fine arts. His projects “Art in Unexpected Places” and “Art Stops” are ephemeral, guerrilla-based performance-installations based in New York and Miami that are executed for a specific moment in time and then gone. Currently his work can be found, by chance, on the streets of New York.

Jason Kates van Staveren is an artist who uses photography, video and installation to document and comment on his world. He combines the methods of a documentary background with a storytelling impulse informed by fantasy novels and folk music. He depicts his subjects with a high degree of fidelity in an effort to make them as knowable as themselves as possible while at once amplifying some aspect, inserting a fiction or otherwise mediating the likeness in a delicate balance that leaves them somehow equal to, yet greater than what they were before his reaction. His work involves themes of archiving, history, memory, autobiography and social critique.
