Diane Pieri
"In my studio I have many quotes to help keep me attentive, creative and emotionally human. One quote reads: What must be present are: Burning passion, unadulterated enthusiasm, perseverance, longing for a beautiful future. To me, these all touch important domains necessary for an artist and a human being. I consider myself a Symbolic Abstractionist, incorporating meaningful symbols into fields of abstraction and pattern. For over 25 years, I have been deeply immersed in the almost unearthly beauty of Indian miniatures. My work weaves meaning, symbol, color and purposeful design into my need to offer beauty in the everyday. Authenticity has always been of utmost importance, not only in my intentions but in the materials I use. Therefore, I work with 23 carat gold leaf, handmade papers, metallic candy wrappers, Indian wood blocks, decorative papers, collage and a variety of paints that give me a matte look and feel."

E. Sherman Hayman
“Born in Newport News, Virginia, and studied literature at Hollins College (now Hollins University) in Roanoke, VA., it was only after this period, when I lived in Paris for a year, that I committed to becoming an artist, and came to Philadelphia to study at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Major exhibitions over the past years include those at Cerulean Arts (Philadelphia), Goggleworks (Reading, PA), Lake Eustis Museum of Art (Florida), Rosenfeld Gallery (Philadelphia), James Oliver Gallery (Philadelphia), and Arlington Arts Center (Virginia). Selected group and juried shows include the National Liberty Museum (Philadelphia), Art in City Hall (Philadelphia), Emily Harvey Foundation Gallery NYC), and The Philadelphia Foundation (with the Philadelphia Art Alliance). My studio practice for the past 20 years has focused mainly on social issues (gun violence, politics, death customs), but has always embraced text as image.”

Justine Kelley
“I’m a Filipino-American, Philly-based designer and illustrator. Currently interning at Truth & Consequences, member of Space1026, and recent MFA grad from Tyler School of Art & Architecture for Graphic Design. Vibrant colors, human emotions, and mistakes that happen during the “making” process excite me. I love to explore the intersection of art and design – to me, making art is to eating as designing is to cooking, and I like to eat as I cook. I also screen print and make ceramics (check out my pots).”

David Schmuckler
With an aesthetic that captures elements of mass-market horror and neo-expressionism, David Schmuckler’s work is uniquely accessible. Using source imagery culled from Google image searches for phrases like “Halloween Scary Mask Costume,” “Bloodscream,” and “Krampus Horror,” which yield images from the horror genre from around the world, Schmuckler develops singular characters using bold design elements and color schemes. Below the figure he incorporates the often-randomized text (sometimes in other languages, from Russian to Italian) from the search results into his compositions, supplying them with equally macabre captions.
