Stephanie Berrie -I am heavily influenced by nature and our human relationships with the environments in which we live. My work questions what it means to have a body, as well as what it means to live in a world surrounded by other bodies. I feel a dissociation with my body that is explored through organic materials and imagery, which serve as metaphors for the emotional and physical matter beneath my skin. I combine multiple forms of printmaking, as well as printmaking with sculpture or painting to keep my work in a flux, fluid state. My work is ever-changing, and allowing it to move and exist through different media reminds me of our ephemerality and infinite potential for growth. 

Michael Weigman - My work explores my suburban upbringing, fascinations with underground subcultures that were my escape, and interest in industrial era history. These disparate sources clash, creating an abstract mythology used to illustrate my vision of contemporary issues. I employ printmaking as my primary medium due to its legacy as a communicative medium for the working class.
