Ryan Danny Owen
Ryan Danny Owen's work explores loss, queer identity, relationships, and time through the use of the archive, found imagery, text, and installation. Their work examines the dynamics of ruins and memorials as a means to explore relationships and an affiliation to the past and present.
Dominic Pinney
Dominic Pinney is a visual artist who primarily explores the duality in order and control, the struggle between systems and the relationship between individuals and the authoritative structures that define our lives. Utilizing sculptural forms and light installation he aims to create a dialogue around the conflict of control, when do systems of authority stop being something that provides form and substance and when do they become constraints that hinder growth and freedom.
