Glyphosate Dreams
Katina Bitsicas
Glyphosate Dreams visually translates the deadly herbicide glyphosate into chemically deteriorated images , a video installation and letterpress prints , reflecting on its consequences to body and land . The broad-spectrum herbicide glyphosate is the mostused herbicide in the world , known to cause cancer , with major implications for public health . A series of photographs physically deteriorates C-prints from Bitsicas ’ family archive and EPA emails in glyphosate over time , resulting in ghost-like images . A series of letterpress prints features the deterioration patterns from the glyphosate-treated archival images and segments of a lake depth chart map . A video installation explores the impact of glyphosate on the common carp , projecting microscopic images at a larger-than-life scale .

A Collaboration with Computation
Matthew Mosher
In A Collaboration with Computation , Matthew Mosher explores how algorithmic processes can lead to new visual forms . Using bespoke computer code , the artist writes programs that generate 2D and 3D models given a set of input parameters . By adjusting these parameters , each program can iterate through dozens of different forms . Mosher selects specific outputs based on their aesthetics , which are then made physical with a variety of traditional and digital fabrication processes . Mosher then applies traditional finishing methods to them . The work questions society ’ s reliance on dualistic thinking , specifically taking issue with the dichotomy of organic versus mechanical and handmade versus digital processes .
