Tim Donovan's photographs for this exhibit are based on a combination of two ideas. The first is what he calls photo-impressionism. Borrowing the idea from the paintings of Monet and Renoir, he attempts to abandon the idea of sharp realism in order to be more spontaneous and exploratory. The second idea is based on his visit to an industrial art section of Berlin, Germany. Experiencing the industrial feel of the sculpture and installations lead him to combine this idea with the photo-impressonism. The result reflects the challenge between environment and industrialism as well as its complements to each other.

Tricia Rose Burt uses office materials and processes (tape, vellum, photocopying) to create works that are reminiscent of ancient handcrafts such as shoji screens and Japanese script in her series "The Relationship Between Use and Beauty." Burt did a series of masking tape drawings two years ago that are exhibited as a group but each one stands on its own. She began enlarging and reducing individual drawings, sometimes combining them with handwriting. Her studio work continues to focus on exploring these images.
