"For more than fifteen years, Keliy Anderson-Staley [b. 1977, Boston, MA] has been working on [Hyphen]-Americans, a photographic tintype portrait series that encapsulates what America looks like today. Using a large-format camera, Anderson-Staley photographs anyone interested in having their portrait taken, regardless of age, sex, or ethnicity, as she continually adds to her collection of more than 4000 portraits. In 2017, after her Houston home and studio were flooded by Hurricane Harvey, she created Shelter in Place, a wooden house constructed of 560 portraits of local residents, as a testament to the strength and resilience of Houstonians. The idea of building a house of strangers redefines the concept of home. 

In 2012, Syrian activist turned photographer Omar Imam [b. 1979 Damascus, Syria] was kidnapped and tortured by a militia and only let go when a friend intervened. Soon after, Imam left Damascus, first settling in Beirut, and now residing in Amsterdam with his wife and children. Syrialism is Imam’s response to the reality of torture experienced by himself and other refugees who settled in Lebanon and other European countries. Like his earlier work, Imam met and talked with numerous refugees who had been abducted, recreating painful memories to bring awareness about the psychological and physical torment that continues today. No longer able to live in their native homelands, each person pictured has had to adopt a new place to call home.

Rubén Martín de Lucas’ [b. 1977, Madrid, Spain] work challenges the concept of home by constructing arbitrary boundaries in unexpected places. In Minimal Republics, he creates photographs about the concept of borders and our need for the structure they provide. Martín de Lucas creates each image the same: define and allocate 100㎡ of space and inhabit it for 24 hours. From wheat fields to soccer fields to expanses of dried earth, unidentified pieces of land are transformed into a temporary residence for one."

Chris Drenth - Portrait Artist  “I have always had a passion for music. When I hear a song, it takes me right back to the place and time when that song was popular on the radio or when I had it in heavy rotation in my music catalog. I was so moved by the death of Prince, I created a pen and ink portrait the day he passed away using only his song titles. Since that time, I have added portraits of other influential musicians, and plan to continue adding to the series.

I spent over 20 years in the restaurant business, and have recently changed careers to pursue my passion. I am currently teaching art in middle school where I am passing on my knowledge of, and more importantly, my love for art."

My approach to my photography has always been graphically based. From the initial photo to the potential cropping of the image.  It has always been geared towards math and geometry.

This series of photos, taken during my travel domestically and abroad, are printed on Plexi and stainless steel presented in a clean contemporary format .  This installation is my botanical and cityscapes.

Janice Aponte | AponteArt | Paintings September 26
I paint in a mix of expressionism and realism which translates into my own unique style, celebrating femininity,love and my cultural roots from the island of Puerto Rico. Painting is my way of releasing energy, recharging and heightening my spirituality. I use oils, acrylics, and mixed media on canvas to create pieces that speak to the soul.

As a child growing up in New York City, I loved creating art and instinctively drew and sketched at the age of 8. As a woman my transition into oil panting has allowed me to express myself on a more spiritual level. During my creative process I am releasing energy, recharging and heightening my spirituality. Art helps me discover and develop my inner strengths while allowing the viewer into my world.

I live in Chicago and work from studio#30 at Workshop4200 in the heart of Hermosa. I paint pieces inspired by my travels and experiences that touch my life. I use a variety of tools to create texture in my paintings, including pallet knives, brushes, sponges, combs and my bare hands. I work in layers, to add more depth and substance to my pieces. Oil paint is my medium of preference but I also love pastel, acrylic and mixed media. My work is a mix of expressionism and realism that evokes femininity, love, and my cultural roots.

Shortly after Hurricane Maria hit the island of Puerto Rico, I started a non-profit organization, 'Arte al Rescate' alongside my friend Erica Sanchez. I felt compelled to do something in the relief efforts for Puerto Rico. After raising thousands of dollars with artwork from artists from across the world, I continue my crusade, making a difference every day in my community and abroad!

Sarah Sosa | Somos Arte | Paintings | October 3

The goal of my work is to portray a different perspective and explore thoughts and emotion through color, texture and living in the process.  I want to inspire, encourage and bring hope through pieces that open opportunity for conversation. I feel that art can heal very deeply, and I aim to explore and give myself to that journey.
