Portal #2, by video artist Trace Feed, is a projection-based work that opens a rift into a distorted alternate reality through camera feedback and modified electronics.
Photon Motion is an ongoing series of abstract photographic video loops. To create these moving images, Alyson Denny experiments with ways to bend light and mix its colors, and then mines the resulting photonic material for captivating and beguiling imagery. These works are made to spark each person's imagination in a different way. Whether you see rainbow-infused abstract paintings, or outer-space adventures, or mysterious creatures dancing on the wall, come together to discover where these moving abstractions take you.
A Container of Breath is a film projection and participatory performance dedicated to geoscientist, jazz musician, Tuskegee Airman and advocate for Black Studies, Randolph Bromery (1926-2003). The piece engages fleeting forms of commemoration and legacy maintenance. An experimental documentary film with a live sound score is the backdrop for oversized amplified cornhole boards which transform the space into one of recreational gathering.
Television Delivers People, produced with Carlota Schoolman, focuses on the political import of broadcasting as corporate monopoly and imperialism of the air. The content is presented ironically, for the message criticizes its medium while remaining within it. Muzak is playing while sentences that Serra has excerpted from television conferences roll down a blue background in white lettering.
