About Some of our Artists

Prabin Badhia:
I like the gestures, contours, and volume of the human form. Whether the model‘s pose is active or passive, I seek to convey the dynamism and movement of the body. I bring that to action on my canvas - any size, any shape, any gender. Since my college days, I have made more than 100,000 sketches.

Gera Hasse:
I have been spending time with a person with dyslexia. That experience has made me see letters and numbers as objects rather than the words we leap to when we see them. In these six pieces I have played with convention and relationships of those objects. It is necessary to move things around in your head to make sense of them. That is a valuable ability. I have used letters that are rigid to show the freedom we can have inside a preordained structure. Other elements in the collage give a sense of the foundations of numbers and letters. Basically I am playing with ideas. Hope you can play too.

Michael Sacramento:
My urban collage paintings are inspired by my day to day observations - from street scenes, billboards and posters to often overlooked surfaces, architectural elements and birds. I translate these moments into fragmented images, objects, textures and colors. As I collect and interpret these visual cues, I use them to create a new visual experience. This process for me is purely intuitive and my ultimate form of self expression.

Valerie Sobel:
My work process involves intuition, imagination as well as intellect; serendipity as well as planning and design. I always observe the world around me, consciously noting details and I leave it to my senses to randomly record what they deem worthy of interest. It will trickle down to my consciousness later.
