David Marc Grant

"My work is concerned with the development of a refined syntactical system that stems from an investigation into the process and problem solving of formal painting issues, as well as addressing my interest in external geo-political issues.The conceptual locus of the work revolves around a personal interest in the environmental problems, contradictions, and unintended consequences of a civilization built on a foundation of unsustainable growth on a finite planet."

"The Morphology of Desire"
created by Robert Arnold

"An experimental exploration of the commodified representation of romantic love in popular culture, and the relationship between the still and moving image, using digital image morphing to animate romance novel cover illustrations as a dance of unrealized desire. This cyclical movement is segmented into a minimalist narrative by short passages quoted from romance novels."
