English born artist Adam Fuss has been one of the leading experimental practitioners of early photographic techniques in contemporary art since the 1980's. Abandoning the camera altogether, he has expanded upon the foundations of the medium with inventive photograms and daguerreotypes that explore the mystery, complexity and transience of life. Originally trained as an advertising photographer, Fuss’ decision to eradicate modern technology from the photographic process was a reaction to the mass-production of generic images.

Alec Soth's series Niagara is a sobering examination of one of America and Canada's most mythologized tourist landmarks. Photographing on both sides of the falls, Soth employs romantic and nostalgic motifs that juxtapose with a bleaker and more alienating reality that exists there. This tension, magnified by the restrained formality of a large format camera, casts Niagara Falls in a distinct light. The result is a shift away from stereotypical romanticization and toward a darker and more complex portrait of a place that is often only seen through an iconic lens.

Anoka Faruqee's virtuosic Op Art paintings exist in the lineages of Bridget Riley and Josef Albers. Her visually stunning and destabilizing works, painted in abstract circular waves, achieve a spectral and photographic quality, while remaining firmly anchored to the medium of painting. Faruqee's meticulous works induce a distinct and bodily experience, foregrounding the perceptual operations of the brain and forcing us to contemplate how we perceive and process visual information.

Barbara Campbell Thomas's work combines painting with quilting, overlaying their material vocabularies to create complex formal dialogues within each painting that resonate with the details of her own life and the history of each medium. She came relatively late to quilting, which she learned from her mother, but quickly realized its power as an art form traditionally practiced by women to inform and expand the range of painting.

In 2003, artist Chris McCaw began photographing the sun with hand made cameras and paper negatives. The resulting body of work, Sunburn, tracks the sun's movement across the sky, often rendering elegant arcs and shapes depending on the camera's location on the planet, and the time of year the photograph was taken. The "sunburned" (or solarized) negatives are the result of the intensity of the sun's light and the magnification of the camera's lens. They speak elementally about time, light and our reliance on the sun, but also speak more metaphorically about photography itself. Taking from the etymology of the word "photography", Chris McCaw has created a series of "light writings" that are as beautiful as they are awe-inspiring.

A complement to his practice, these sculptures are meant to be something mundane that could be found around the house and even considered in still life or used as a vase.

Bell’s work evolves by gathering everyday objects, deconstructing them, and creating sculptures from those elements. He ultimately aims to discover something new, but also something that reflects its previous language: a sculpture that at first glance reaffirms assumptions of commonplace objects but at further examination resists those notions and lives outside of his understanding.

Utilizing historical, scientific and artistic lenses, Sobsey aims to understand the connection to plant and animal loss as one indication of the larger climatological perils we face as a species.

Mat Curran’s practice merges his formal training in printmaking and graphic design with methods honed through countless hours spent tagging, pasting, and stenciling graffiti in public spaces. His subject matter is derived from an intuitive patchwork of experiences with the wildness of nature and research of ancient traditions. By layering images of natural forms with traditional mythological totems and symbols, Curran creates his own parallel world within the one we currently reside. His public art reintroduces bits of wilderness into the urban landscape from which these symbols have been edged out by progress. As a result, Curran’s body of work creates a contemporary narrative of the relationship between the natural and the manmade. The viewer is invited to reflect on the ability of imagery to create sacred space in our everyday lives.

As a visual artist and chef, Michael Perry is constantly emerging and re-emerging. Being self taught in both fields has presented both freedoms to explore and obstacles to overcome.

The series of work being presented by Artsuite is based on a pointillist and primitive style. Perry has always been fascinated by the painted, copal wood carvings of Oaxaca (Alebrije) and the intricate bead and thread work of the Huichol tribes in Mexico. Growing up in the Navajo and Hopi region of the southwest he took inspiration from the intricate mandalas of the sand paintings - the sand being nature's pointillist tool.

After being introduced to Manfred Schwartz's work of the 1960's at Etretat in France, Perry felt liberated. His earlier work had been primarily representative landscapes. Schwartz's work opened up for him a personalized view of nature and the environment. Perry's style and intensification became more abstract.

In a world that is complex and uncertain, Perry strives to create a point of stillness for the viewer - a moment of pause and respite.

Norbert Bisky's treatment of landscapes and exploration of the portrait and narrative structure place him firmly in the tradition of great European painting. But his experiments with breaking down forms and with blocks of color also place him on the borderline of abstract art.

Sarah Anne Johnson's Arctic Wonderland emerged from an artist residency aboard a double masted schooner in the arctic circle. Using the images she created there as starting points for a number of mixed-media photographic works, Johnson's series comments on the sublime beauty of nature, it's inherent fragility and the irreparable damage that humanity has, and continues, to inflict upon it. In this context, wonderland has the dual meaning, referring to both the brilliant beauty of the landscape and the absurd notion of a utopian colonization of the natural world.

Sarah Emerson's paintings and installations present viewers with highly stylized versions of nature that combine geometric patterns and symbolic archetypes to examine our cultural landscape. In her compositions, she distorts the physical laws that govern the real world because concepts like gravity, inertia, and locality do not govern our emotional perspective of the world. Emerson does not try to replicate nature or real space, instead she uses the familiar genre of landscape to explore the collective events and conditions that define our cultural landscape. In her career, she has worked on multiple painting series' and site-specific projects that use the ‘flatness’ of painting to explore themes that reflect on the fragility of life, the futility of earthly pleasures, and the disintegration of our natural landscape. As it is presented, painting can flatten events in time, space, and memory onto one picture plane allowing room for a reconciliation of otherwise incompatible states of being.
