Topiary Rabbit, 2020
Andrew Wheatley
Digital collage
7 x 9"

I made a series of collages about topiary animals after reading Stephen King's "The Shining". The animals are decorated with objects and symbols that relate to their habits and representation in popular culture.

Flag, 2020
Andrew Wheatley
Digital collage
12 x 18"
NFS
A flag design about working together and keeping each other safe.
As an editorial illustrator, I aim to create eye-catching illustrations that communicate complex ideas and concepts. I enjoy creative problem solving-determining what I want the image to say, and how to relay specific ideas. I believe that images should be in a dialogue with each viewer-allowing them to interpret and piece together the narrative themselves.
My work has been published in: The Guardian, Wired, The Globe & Mail, The Leeds Guide, The Ecologist, and New Internationalist-and I was selected for the Association of Illustrators' Images 32 Exhibition: The Best of British Contemporary Illustration.

Universe window black rose, 2020
Jacqueline Sferra Rada
Monotype collage
12 x 9"
$175
During the Sheltering In period I began to explore the hand print monotype process which is a radically different medium for me that has opened a path to non-objective, pure color works and abstract compositions. While it is an extremely simple process. it is deeply engrossing in its infinite variety of possibilities of both color and composition. Collaging pieces of the printing papers to the finished print became the final stage to completion. When one is involuntarily removed from 'normal' routines and locations new, untried approaches evolve. When time is seemingly unending and there are no schedules or commitments to meet the natural flow of energy is unhindered and uncensored. The print submitted here is part of the ongoing exploration of this medium which is a hand printed monotype with pieces of the printing papers collaged into the final piece. While there is no subject matter or connection to anything physical. I have chosen to title it as relating to the Universe...

Kaiser Kamal
Mixed media on paper

Artist Statement: Like everyone else in NYC, I was stuck in my apartment due to the lock down. Following the guide, the line to stay safe with the family. TV and Internet news became part of life. These drawings are inspired by every news I watched during this time. Every news from friend or family as someone get infected by the virus. Every Death. Anytime heard someone overcome and get recovered.

Beyond Borders Passage of Time, 2020
Sin-ying Ho
Porcelain
20 x 15 x 27"
$6,500
Under this unprecedent time caused by Covid-19, I strongly admit that we are no longer living in a singularity society or country. We are connected with crossed boarders not only in a macroscope world but also in a microscope and virtual world. I was inspired by the images of the actual coronavirus, 5G cloud, corporate logos and stock market index charts that I then transferred by a digital decal technique. These images of the living virus, consumerism and the trace of technology create a visual metaphor that expresses the relationship between the never changing human nature and the continuing change of our physical world.
Drawing on my Asian background and experiences in Western cultures, I constantly explore the “collision of cultures” in my ceramic work.

Entangled Before History, 2020
Linda Vigdor
Watercolor, gouache, & Flashe on paper
13 x 24"
$450
As many ruminate on the potential cataclysm of irreversible climate change and species extinction, a babble of science, myths, and fears creates hurdles in agreeing on a future worth saving. My art making confronts the disconnect between an understanding that humans possess the most developed brains on the planet, yet also exhibit the most broadly destructive and short-sighted thinking of any species. Through painting I think through the question of why humans continue, seemingly oblivious, on a path of self and planet destruction. I paint landscapes of the Anthropocene using molecular and macro-scale imagery to suggest tensions between two cosmologies: the systems intelligence of Earth vs. humans’ belief in ever greater consumption and novelty.

Just a flower, 2020
Leda Maria
Photography
$200
During this summer, I have made a series of photos of my neighbor's gardens.
It was very hard for me to stay locked down for too many months at home.
When I could get out of my house, I saw everything from a different perspective. Life is beautiful, and we can't get bored with nature. I am very proud of what I accomplished during this period of my life. Life and nature are beautiful, and I am more and more enchanted of what we can accomplish through the walking around that I have done.
