Isabell Mathew is a junior at SUNY Geneseo, where she is studying neuroscience. She is deeply interested in the inner workings of neurodegenerative diseases. Her preferred medium is pencils and ink on paper.

Quinn Youngs is a senior at SUNY Oswego studying journalism and creative writing. They live in Vienna, New York.

Animus Zhang uses photography to explore themes of isolation, memory, and the passage of time. The monochromatic compositions evoke a sense of disconnection, as ordinary objects and spaces take on haunting, unfamiliar qualities. Zhang invites the viewer to question the meaning of belonging and loss within the familiar, creating a narrative that bridges the personal and the universal.

Sophia Turturro is a senior psychology major at SUNY Geneseo. She enjoys long walks on a short walk, wading through the mediate, and playing with sticks. Recently, she’s been dabbling in cryptic nonsense, self-reference, and lists of three.

Noah Bonesteel, a senior at SUNY Plattsburgh, is a mixed media artist working from the outskirts of the Adirondack park. He is deeply influenced by his love of nature and fascination with natural history and ecology. Art is a way for him to understand the climate and biodiversity crises, creating loose narratives centered around natural relationships as seen through a human framework.

Meghan McMullan is on her third campus for her third semester and would also like to know what is going on. She currently attends Suffolk Community College for a degree in liberal arts. Her true passions are the backroads and gas stations that make her feel far away.

Maddie Hinrichs is an MFA candidate at the University at Albany. She received her BFA from the University of Lincoln-Nebraska in 2019. She works with oil painting and embroidery mediums that convey her memories of familiar interiors. The spaces she works with begin in reality and devolve into dreamscapes that reject logic and favor surrealism.

Sophia Montecalvo is a senior at SUNY Geneseo, set to graduate in May 2022.  Her major is English with a focus in creative writing. She loves spending time with her friends, reading, writing, and all things Star Wars.

Kailey Maher is a BFA artist in Ceramics and Sculpture at SUNY Plattsburgh. Her artwork mirrors a magnetic polarity of mediums: stone and ceramics, pushing against and pulling within. Her artwork reflects the effects of time—shaping and reshaping—not in minutes and seconds, but in a living lifetime of transformative movements of contractions and expansions. She works in a range of scale and mediums, inspired by the ephemeral language of the natural world’s ever-present cognizance.

Brielle Sarkisian is a junior at SUNY New Paltz. She is a BFA student in drawing and painting and has let her subconscious thoughts and anxieties make their way into her most recent work. By channeling her experiences into her art, she learns a lot about herself and her emotions.

Mollie Ward is a BFA student at SUNY Plattsburgh with a concentration in drawing and ceramics. Her work focuses on her relationship with and understanding of soft bodies, specifically her own body, in conversation with femme bodies in classical art. This exchange between classical art and her lived experience has influenced her recent body of work.

Brianna Olsen is a senior at SUNY Potsdam studying art studio, with a concentration in painting, and a minor in graphic design and new media. Her work explores the relationships with the people who have influenced her throughout her life. Color and texture are used to give the viewer an idea of who the subject is in terms of their personality, while the black and gray portrait itself establishes the moment as a memory.

Juliana Haliti is a painter and sculptor who makes work reflecting upon the blind faith of their childhood—their unknowing participation in racist and unethical capitalist systems.Their work has been exhibited locally and nationally. They received their BFA from the College of Saint Rose and their MA and MFA from the University at Albany. Haliti is also the art editor for the online publication, Barzakh magazine.

Erik Carrigan suffers from a rare disease known as Visual Snow Syndrome, which is an incurable disorder that gives his vision an active, static texture that leaves colors, shapes, and lighting difficult to distinguish. He was then diagnosed with vertigo. Further research proved it all may be neurologically related. This motivated Carrigan to return to school and become a student to further explore art as a means of translating how his eyes perceive the shared world differently.

Sarah Brown will graduate from SUNY Plattsburgh this May where she has studied sculpture and digital photography. She enjoys capturing images that show the passing of time as well as how things change and stay the same.

Kailey Maher is a BFA student in ceramics and sculpture at SUNY Plattsburgh primarily working in stoneware, alabaster and bronze. Her pieces reflect the effects of time—shaping and reshaping—not in minutes and seconds, but a living lifetime of transformative movements of expansions and contractions.

J.S. is a senior psychology major at SUNY Geneseo. They have always had an interest in fashion, photography, and art. They often pull inspiration from pop music as well as fellow queer artists.

Mollie Ward is a BFA student at SUNY Plattsburgh, concentrating in drawing and ceramics. Her work focuses on her relationship and understanding of soft bodies, specifically her own body, in conversation with femme bodies in classical art. Ward’s drawings are often an amalgamation of her face merged with her sister’s face, creating her own version of a classical archetype. This exchange between classical art and her lived experience has influenced her recent body of work.
