Twenty120


20 artists, 120 seconds each working with the theme "change". Like many collections, this is a mixed bag and nothing really pushes the envelope. I think I've spotted a couple things that I use in my work that now look incredibly banal so there is a silver lining to viewing some of the lesser pieces.

Matt Tragesser does some interesting things with negative space and perception in Soup to Nuts (see the first example below) and Scott Matz and Justin Meredith's TR-98 is deliciously absurd(second example). Larry Morris, Bran Dougherty-Johnson(organizer of Psst!), and Ben Radatz(co-founder of MK12) also raise their head above the parapet.

Here are a couple examples:

be sure to watch it all the way through, the dull start is deceptive
