Genevieve White, “Thickly Reading Misty 2012 Through Glass”, Durational Performance.
"Using the technique of gazing into a glass ball to interpret the future, I will invite one person at a time to sit with me and look together for a message. We will concentrate and gaze, as I ask a question relating to their future. We will choose the answer in a form of a material, viscous in texture and apply it to the ball. I will try to find an answer in the image it creates whether abstract or literal. The process will not be a real reading, yet an attempt to create an atmosphere, a conversation around the idea of fate, whilst being playful with the concept of the reading and how it could be performed."

Ryan Leitner
Ryan Leitner was a Navy brat who spent his formative years in Japan. He picked up his first camera at age 14 after glimpsing the Diane Arbus image Boy with a Toy Grenade in Central Park. Studying photography in a global hopscotch from Chicago to London to Paris, he’s mixed formal education with apprenticeships to hone an aesthetic at once immediate and alarming. Moving to New York, he’s focused his efforts on documenting friends and freaks as they rip at the night, flush with exploits that blend bodily fluids with breaking & entering.
Ryan will be exhibiting his recent photographic body of work.
Colleen Coleman
Colleen Coleman is a multi-disciplinary artist, living in Brooklyn, New York. She is recent recipient of an MFA in Sculpture from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Colleen Coleman's work uses a personal language of visual metaphor to explore life through history and projection of the future. Outer space, time travel, invisibility, tolerance: nothing is impossible in the worlds she constructs. She makes sculpture, prints, drawings, and animations to explore liminal states of becoming. She utilizes character narratives simultaneously with enigmatic adventure, explore diverse aspects of life and consciousness, dynamics of human interaction, and environmental changes. The world as it once was, treating the historical amnesia suffered by society. Her influences range from symbolism, surrealism and pop art in western tradition -- extending the Catholic and African traditions of object and altar making. It is Coleman's belief that all human beings share in a collective unconscious and her work reflects her own personal struggle to uncover the full meaning of what it means to be HUMAN.
