CHAZ GUEST
Born in Niagra Falls NY; he is the seventh of nine brothers and sisters. After earning a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design from Southern Connecticut State University, he then graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. After graduating, Chaz moved to Paris, France. He worked for the fashion magazine Joyce, where he illustrated the lines for various haute couture houses.
Spanish philosopher George Santayana said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Artist Chaz Guest paints to remind us of our past and in so doing asks us what we would like our future to be.
CONNOR TINGLEY
Connor Tingley is without doubt one of the most exciting artist’s practising his craft in Los Angeles. His dedication to authenticity led to the astonishing NUNS series. His self interrogation on the meaning of judgement and the notion that implicit biases are baked in, is paired with his astonishing abilty to put paint on canvas. He may use the 15th century sfumato technique but this series is layered with a very modern application. It activates using your iphone.
Oh and if inventiveness and thoughtfulness weren’t enough, he’s also a really good skateboarder.
Witness the paintings, and ignite your own journey.
