Ironic and poetic works by Kevin Van Aelst:
“My color photographs consist of common artifacts and scenes from everyday life, which have been rearranged, assembled, and constructed into various forms, patterns, and illustrations. The images aim to examine the distance between the ‘big picture’ and the ‘little things’ in life—the banalities of our daily lives, and the sublime notions of identity and existence.”

Photographic works by Josh Poehlein:
“Borderlands explores the possibilities of photographic landscape by emphasizing spaces where the passage of time can be seen more clearly.

These divisions highlight attempts to use and compartmentalize the landscape, as well as to repress and ignore the change contained within it.
