Stephanie Sydney Habitat: Explorations August 13 - October 23, 2022 As global warming and climate change continue to wreak havoc on the earth’s ecosystem, Los Angeles-based artist, Stephanie Sydney, examines the behaviors and attitudes of human nature and their direct contribution to the destruction and decay of the natural world. Through her carefully constructed digital collages, she combines her knowledge of painting and digital design. These collages are created through the use of Photoshop where she manipulates and layers images on top of one another. Through this layering of images, Sydney examines her fascination with the idea of juxtaposition between extreme concepts like life and death, strength and fragility, chaos and order, among others. Originally trained as a painter, Sydney views her photography as a canvas and Photoshop as her paintbrush, using the program to manipulate the size, color, and shape of her chosen images. The result reveals a surrealist interpretation of reality whose visual associations compel the viewers to question the relationship between the individual images and the overall message presented. These optic explorations of the natural world and urban blight reconstruct her spontaneous snapshots of everyday life into a meaningful investigation into the effects of global warming. Stephanie Sydney is a London-born artist who currently resides in Venice, California. She works in several media including mixed media, assemblage sculpture, installation, performance art, photography, digital, and digital collages. Her work is in several collections including Banque BNP Paribas and Morgan Stanley in New York. She has had solo exhibitions at Brand Library Art Gallery in Glendale, California; Gallery 825 in Los Angeles; Crafton Hills College Art Gallery in Yucaipa, California; and Villa di Donato in Naples, Italy. Sydney’s work has also been shown at Gallery FotoNostrum, Barcelona, Spain; and Raleigh Towers in Los Angeles, California; Launch LA and the Korean Cultural Center, Los Angeles, California; Site: Brooklyn Gallery, New York; San Diego Museum of Art, and BG Gallery in Bergamot Station, Santa Monica, California.

The Sum of Its Parts Debbie Korbel October 3, 2020 - December 6,2020 “The Sum of Its Parts” by Debbie Korbel “The Sum of Its Parts” by Debbie Korbel “The Sum of Its Parts” by Debbie Korbel “The Sum of Its Parts” by Debbie Korbel 1/6 360 virtual tour by Birdman The whole is greater than the sum of its parts; that the finished sculpture has more value and meaning that the many disparate components that comprise it — this is what Debbie Korbel hopes to achieve when she sets out to create her assemblage sculptures. Everyone knows what it is like to lie on their back and 'see' images in the clouds. When Korbel was a child, she assumed everyone saw these kinds of images everywhere like she did — figures, animals and surreal creatures in the patterns on the linoleum flooring, the random swirls in a plaster ceiling, or even the way shadows fell against a wall. As an adult Korbel approaches her sculpture materials in the same way, by standing back and looking for what she 'sees' to emerge. "Being an assemblage sculptor is a little like taking a daily Rorschach test," says Korbel. Korbel creates her sculptures by combining her original sculpted elements with an assortment of objects she has collected. Often the initial impetus for the sculpture occurs when she finds an interesting fragment of metal or wood and then the idea takes root and evolves from that single catalyst piece. Every sculpture is like a puzzle for which Korbel finds and fits each seemingly unrelated piece together in its more expressive form to create something new. Back to All Exhibitions

Godeleine de Rosamel Anticipating February 3 - March 17, 2024 Godeleine de Rosamel, Flora #1, #2, and #7, Ceramic and electrical wire, 2023 Godeleine de Rosamel, Fauna #3, Ceramic and wood, 2022 Godeleine de Rosamel, Flora #9 (Detail), Ceramic, 2023 Godeleine de Rosamel, Flora #1, #2, and #7, Ceramic and electrical wire, 2023 1/8 After taking a step back from illustration, artist Godeleine de Rosamel has worked primarily in ceramics, creating unique life-forms and vegetation that inhabit a whimsical yet earthly domain. She embraces the innocence of her childhood drawings, bringing those creatures from the page into our third dimension. De Rosamel's interest in natural history is evident not only in her subject matter, but also in her process. She combines materials like clay, pigment, and sticks to create creatures that appear to come from a world adjacent to our own. In de Rosamel’s practice, she assumes the role of “Creator” by sculpting new species to populate her human-less utopia. In her world, politics, gender, and suffering do not exist. Instead, her charming, well-fed creatures roam freely through forests and sleep under trees. They reside in an idealized setting, where leisure and tranquility are at the forefront. Through her earthy color palette and each creature’s laissez faire demeanor, she maintains a softness and levity in her work. Her world is a utopia far from our own, and far from the devastating impacts of human activities on biodiversity on our planet.   Godeleine de Rosamel is a French artist based in Los Angeles, California. Born in Lille, France, de Rosamel’s passion for art began early when she was just a child drawing animals and taking her first ceramics class at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. In 1986, she attended the Ecole de Recherche Graphique (ERG) in Brussels, Belgium, where she graduated with a Fine Arts degree and began a career as a children’s book illustrator. Her whimsical illustrations have been featured in a number of books in France and Belgium. In 2001, she moved to Los Angeles and continued her career as an illustrator for several years until ultimately switching gears and to focus on her ceramics practice. Back to All Exhibitions

Fairyland Leonard Greco February 23, 2019 - March 31, 2019 “Fairyland” by Leonard Greco “Fairyland” by Leonard Greco “Fairyland” by Leonard Greco “Fairyland” by Leonard Greco 1/4 This recent body of work he's called Fairyland has developed a definite camp sensibility (not dissimilar to the theatrical confections of Cecil Beaton in the 1920’s). Camp, having been described as the lie that tells the truth, is an innate language he has been reticent to explore until recently. Perhaps internalized homophobia has left him hesitant to make work so boldly queer – in every sense of the word – making art so openly flamboyant. Purposely stamped with informed wit and a wry knowing humor, this new work is first and foremost intended to visually delight and be taken seriously . Among other things, it touches on the weighty tableau of the Temptation of St. Anthony of the Desert and the perilous trials of Herakles. His aesthetic expression is influenced by his instinctive inclination to lighten somber somewhat ponderous existential themes with a gay touch (consciously using this word in both its current identity-laden fraught understanding and the anachronistic yet more delightful sense). While the work possesses decidedly camp sensibilities it is never ironic as is so often the current fashion. He finds irony frequently cynical; his work is never cynical for no other reason than the inherent affection he holds for his motley crew of heroes, saints and sinners .He draws indiscriminately upon diverse seemingly unrelated archetypes and themes from many sources, including Classical mythology, British folklore, Wagnerian operas and the biblical text of my Catholic youth, doing so in order to touch upon that which is culturally familiar to him, to others – and if we believe Jung – found deeply rooted as archetypes in our souls. These eternal themes provide me ample, seemingly endless, means of interpretation. As a person steeped in the Western tradition of literature and the visual arts, it is a rich fertile field he feels most comfortable in adopting. The work presented at Fairyland are these familiar themes, explored many times over by countless artist; yet this time re-imagined through a prism of his own. His play upon cultural themes hopefully adds a sentence or two to this ongoing cultural conversation. Working in variety of mediums, and a fabulist by nature, it is my intention to create a theatrical spectacle that is peculiar, visually arresting and deeply personal. Although the work is made solely for his own delight, He hopes others find the work meaningful in some way. He also hopes visitors feel inspired to resist the siren call of selfies and pause instead, if only for a moment, as these works are visually dense and to add their own voice to this enriching and frequently neglected conversation. With that, welcome to his Fairyland. Back to All Exhibitions

Coyotes, Whiskey and Fireworks Matt Picon August 12, 2017 - September 23, 2017 “Coyotes, Whiskey and Fireworks” by Matt Picon “Coyotes, Whiskey and Fireworks” by Matt Picon “Coyotes, Whiskey and Fireworks” by Matt Picon “Coyotes, Whiskey and Fireworks” by Matt Picon 1/8 Matt Picon was born and raised throughout Southern California and is currently living and working in El Paso, Texas. With a background in photography and graphic design, his work moved to site-specific interventions and video installations prior to obtaining his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Intermedia at Arizona State University in 2013. He invested in creating relationships between traditional and non-traditional materials and how they communicate form, history and purpose to the viewer. The objects and installations vary on material use, but are mainly constructed of repurposed wood and steel with other conventional materials applied in alternative ways. Sculptures from a recent body of work entitled “Coyotes, Whiskey, and Fireworks,” are based on historical research, observations and personal experiences in the Mojave Desert, specifically the Antelope Valley. Calling Lancaster home during his formative years, Picon found it necessary to revisit and focus on not just his memories of the region but also the stories that came before his own. In response, Picon has created sculptures and installations that address the landscape, suburban development, homesteads, historical forms and personal stories. Back to All Exhibitions

Untethered Sonja Schenk January 8, 2015 Untethered Untethered 1/1 Sonja Schenk is an artist based in Los Angeles. She began as a video artist and has since turned to painting and sculpture. She has participated in group shows at the Vincent Price Art Museum, the Berkeley Art Center, Tarfest LA, and Cerritos College Art Gallery. Her work has been featured in NY Arts Magazine, the Eastbay Express, the San Francisco Chronicle, Forth magazine, and at rhizome.org. She has had shows in Northern California, Los Angeles and has been invited to do a site-specific work at a museum in Switzerland, her first show outside the U.S. Noah Thomas' exploration of sound is influenced by landscape and by an internal landscape/soundscape embodied in the construction of ‘place.’ Thomas’ improvisational practice currently uses the analogue manipulation of sound from a variety of sources, looped digitally and offset in time to create a sense of space/place. The instruments he uses include trumpet, cedar flute, conch, keyboard, Theremin, tonal percussion instruments, sound toys and natural objects. Thomas used a variety of these instruments to interpret Sonja Schenk’s paintings and sculptures during the opening reception. Just as the physical landscape delivers a wide range of sensory cues, clues and delights, so do Thomas’ soundscape. Together with Sonja Schenk’s works, which stack and crumble, rise and fall like the terrain, they become a new construction of place. Back to All Exhibitions
