The Floppy Disk by Nick Gentry
Artist and Central Saint Martins graduate Nick Gentry creates recycled art with obsolete media storage as his medium. After assembling canvases by puzzling together floppy disks with all kinds of different data, he paints portraits of over them.
“The floppy disk stands firm and lives on as a metaphor for the increasing pace of the modern life cycle, mass production and the throwaway culture of today.”
The Twilight Zone
The original series first launched on Oct. 2, 1959, and it led viewers into another dimension of space and time, full of time travelers, apocalyptic scenarios and other worldly cultures (that often-times weren’t as friendly as E.T.)
Controversial topics like race relations, prejudice and questioning cultural norms were often addressed in episodes, with “the stranger,” aliens or demons standing in for oppressed groups. After five years and 156 episodes, the series ended.
Hypnagogia by Chris O'Hoski
The subjects in his paintings are often reflection, direct subject matter or experimental. Chris gallery features imagery often from dreams, but primarily focuses on the human figure. Perhaps the one thing we'll never figure out, inside or out.
Dust by Ujin Lee
There is never enough time or effort or vision to make sure things are fixed. We must suppose they are (or were) somewhere here, in the vicinity of the place we are (or were) standing, in the present continuous, within the limits of what we are ready to appreciate. I can hardly imagine a memory that has no stills. The trick is in admiring the thing the trick tricks you into believing, while knowing the trick.
Ghosts : the need for accompanied presence.
Psyche by Kristamas Klousch
Through a process of self-portraiture, Klousch studies herself, resulting in the paradox of thesis vs. antithesis, where by she becomes both subject and object of her investigation.

The Magic Art of Paper Cutting’ by Elsa Mora
I tend to see fear as two little people having an argument within my mind. One of them is positive, the other one is negative but in the end I am both of them. I am aware of how much I can influence their argument, it all depends on my own personal choice of whom I am going to support and let win. This piece in the photos is a representation of this idea, (Elsa Mora)
Walls, Diaries, and Paintings by Jose Parla
Using a combination of free-form, calligraphic markings and urban graffiti, Parla has recreated the sense of excitement, danger, and vibrancy inherent in city living. He has managed to capture both a sense of history and a feeling of modern edge at the same time.
Wonderful World by Mark Ryden
Mark Ryden is an amazing illustrator who is a combination of hieronymus bosch and the big eyed paintings of the past. A little cute, a little creepy.
