Noelle Velez uses vivid color and undulating cartoon lines to build figures representing both her inner world and scenes informed by dream narratives. Noelle’s vivid pantheon of both human and vegetal characters serve as an analogue for the subconscious mind and the extremity therein. She uses adorned human avatars, plant life, trash and quotidian objects to explore her place as someone who plays the role of both interloper and intermediary between ideas about the perceived poles of gender. In 2019, Velez was included in Reclining Dude, a three person exhibition curated by Keisha Priolieau-Martin. This summer, Velez will have work exhibited in Innards, a three-person exhibition alongside Lilli Helling and Becky Bailey, curated by Danni Bellando at SMUSH Gallery. Noelle Velez (b. 1996, NY) attended the Yale Norfolk Summer Session in 2017, and received her BFA from SUNY Purchase in 2018.

Brandon Elijah-Johnson b. 1992 in Seattle, Washington, Brandon Elijah Johnson lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. As we step into Johnson's world, somewhere between imagination and reality, we become a part of his visual diary. A collector of images, from photographs found on the internet to snapshots taken with his phone, Johnson reinterprets familiar ordinary scenes in his paintings and drawings, perhaps in an attempt to freeze a moment in time. He takes reference images from his direct environment and intentionally - or not - offers a representative picture of today’s world. His vivid compositions draw from pop culture, embrace pastiche, and remain attached to the here and now. As part of a generation willingly returning to figurative painting, Johnson moves away from pure representation, at times infusing a touch of playfulness, and distancing himself from painterly conventions. Between fiction and documentary reality, Johnson’s works reveal a part of our collective memory.
