Jackie Brown deals with issues of growth, bioengineering, and the interaction between humans and other organisms: “An important undercurrent in the work is an interest in the human manipulation of living systems”.

Kathleen Benton’s “Brachyura Zoea 1” is part of a larger series of Zooplankton images captured by microscopic cameras. Her work explores the relationship between figure and ground, “The translucent to transparent nature of zooplankton and their habitat as a visual investigation is fascinating, as transparency confuses the figure and the ground”. Come check out her work at Hillyer throughout the entire month of October!

“Using a lexicon of familiar forms that bind the absurd and poetic, he creates spaces that can be both playful and horrific, in which, like a dream, the delineation of forms can come into question.

Come see Victor’s painting and experience this play on absurd and poetic! His work will be up through October 31st.
