JEFF OSTERGREN
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? JO: I make work about the intertwined histories of pharmaceuticals and color. My hyper-synthetic paintings, sculptures, drawings, and videos are infused with actual pharmaceuticals and chemicals. I appropriate imagery from art history and advertising to create […]
XINYI YANG
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? XY: I would describe my work as surrealist painting which combines both figuration and abstraction. My current body of work depicts minimal landscapes in which I seek to reflect my emotions, conscious and subconscious. I would summarize […]
KANE & JAMES
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your music, what would it be and why? K&J: I’d say folk-pop, with all the guitars and slang and bits of harmonica. Barn pop if you will. CH.89: Where do you draw your inspiration from? K&J: Lately the sixties and seventies. Big family-style harmonies. […]
MONICA BIZZARRI
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? MB: I would say its modern organic textile art because all the dyes that I use are natural and therefore the only textiles I use are 100% wool, silk, cotton, and linen but I consider that the […]
LYDIA ELLEN GREAVES
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why?

CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? FB: We always try to escape categorizations of our artwork, and believe we are always evolving in our practice. The style, aesthetics and reflections around it are always moving, changing and developing. Although there is a […]
LORNA ROBERTSON
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? LR: I would say I fall into the abstract and semi abstract category of oil painting. My most pure abstract work comes out when I am representing sound and rhythm visually in a painting, and for […]
DAVID OLESKI
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? DO: I have two bodies of work. Initially I painted large contemporary still-life paintings, so the category might be “representational impressionist still life oil paintings”, but in the past 7 years I have transitioned into a […]
LIA LIAO
CH.89: If you were to categorize or describe the style of your artwork, what would it be and why? LL: I would describe my style as rational and logical, but at the same time emotional.
