At its core, James' work is about intimacy. His sexual identity and personal relationships form a prism, through which the content of his paintings bend and refract as they examine intimacy between strangers. People on the street, the subway, and couples sharing private moments in public are all viewed from a queer stance to ask questions about loneliness, contact, and communication. By combining collected images and personal experiences, James creates composite sketches that repurpose the initial encounters captured in them.
Hanna Brody lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. She graduated with a BA in Studio Art and Psychology from Lewis and Clark College in 2016. Her paintings embody friends, family, loved ones, herself, and those who surround her. She paints to evoke a sense of intimacy and understanding towards her subject’s emotions and psychological states. She uses layers of water based and oil paint to obscure and transform elements of her paintings, sometimes including multiple integrated angles to create a seemingly whole portrait. Through portraiture she explores themes of alienation and isolation as well as empathy and collective emotion. She has been a member of NYC Crit Club since 2018 and will be participating in a residency program with Dear Artists Projects this coming April.

Her most recent work uses the body as a vessel to play and experiment with line and color as a way of exploring queerness and her own queer lens. Her work has been featured in exhibitions across Philadelphia and New York City and in multiple online exhibitions, including with Tussle Projects, Visionary Art Collective, and Philadelphia Sketch Club. Most recently, she received the award for Excellence in Watercolor from Philadelphia Sketch Club in their 2021 Works on Paper Juried Exhibition.
Michelle Selwa is an artist and Brooklyn native currently based in New York City. Her work explores the ways technology affects our relationship with images and memory, and the anxiety of archiving images from rapidly degrading mediums.
Cole Puetz is an American artist based in Tucson, Arizona. His depictions of the modern queer experience offer an access point into the subconscious mind of both artist and viewer. Objects and symbols within his work leave vague imprints of familiarity as if existing within a memory. Sharp divergences in style and specificity form a detailed collage of dynamic, powerfully charged imagery. Each buried, unseen detail unlocks a new door, revealing private, concealed thoughts and desires. Puetz’s creative practice is a form of inner contemplation and subconscious realization. Internal conflicts existing in the present moment of the creation process are transformed into emblematic visual stories that bring the artist and viewer on a journey of self discovery. Each fragment having separate connotations that merge to form a larger, complex narrative.
