Edelen and Schulz Exhibition
Ron Edelen : Visual Design
Visual Design explores the relationships between graphic form , communication , and technology . The very nature of the title speaks to Edelen ’ s challenge to further define a contemporary viewpoint for today ’ s diluted , interpretive discipline of visual design — not through words but through a vast mix of stylistic representation that pulls references from all other disciplines of visual art . The exhibition features a series of micro experiments , comprised of several static 2D and time-based graphic illustrations , all at variable scales and media .

Ryan Schulz : The Final Frontier
The Final Frontier frames escapist consumption as a contemporary tool to temper the toils and tribulations of late-stage capitalist American life . Ceramic vessels are used to reflect the fast food , slow food , and substances employed to cope through increasingly turbulent and unpredictable times . While traditional handmade ceramic pottery invites the user to partake in something special and qualitative , this series investigates the altered expectations that arise when the vessels bloat and contort into something phantasmal .
