CASANDRA MARTINEZ//"As an artist, I work toward developing photographs that capture a world that is separate from our own sense of reality. Through my work, I hope to create a window onto a new world where the invisible becomes visible."

JOHN DURAN//"I am not a painter. I was not trained to paint. I think of myself more as a facilitator for a mutual creation between myself and the viewer.

“Trapademia II: LIT” enhances the inherent brilliance of Black masculinity.

ABBY RAMIREZ ALCALA//"I wanted to capture the beauty, as well as the coordination of the awkward and tense examination of representation and reflection. I highlighted the fragmentation of the subject’s body through lighting and color gels paired with the isolation of body parts and shifts in scale."
