"I am a 2D artist working in various mediums, as a printmaker, a painter of watercolors and oils as well as in the encaustic mediums. I find different mediums lend themselves to different subject matter. My work often reflects my interest in architecture and the environment, developing a relationship between structure, nature and culture as a universal landscape. I strive to work with imagery that is somewhat familiar but is not clearly defined. Creativity is a process and my work evolves on its own terms letting the spirit of each medium unfold with the end results hovering between representation and abstraction."

HER Again: A Sir Froderick Art Show @ Moksha

H.E.R. Again: artwork by Sir Froderick and music by Specs Wizard and Dil Withers. This is a celebration of HIP HOP culture and specifically the art of CHOPING and SPLICING, MIXING and SAMPLING.

Sir Froderick, a comic book junkie as well as a beat producer, collages with comics and other scraps to create detailed pieces of art that jump off the wall.

From the Artist:
"The use of the onomatopoeias from comic books represents a visual recreation of my music as well as a sign of the current sample-culture diaspora, freely incorporating recognizable elements into a improvisational collage format."

We'll have original beats by Dil Withers and MC Specs Wizard. We will also have comic clippings so that you can create your own collage.

"Arcendum Malum" @ Gargoyles Statuary

Please join us in welcoming monster keepers and creators M.R Hopkins and Malizabeth from Portland, OR and their protective creatures the Nightmerriment Nyxidium!!!

"Arcendum Malum - to ward off evil. Much like gargoyles and witch's familiars, Nightmerriment Nyxidium are protective creatures. They are skilled in the arts of warding off malicious spirits, demons, and creatures of any kind that may induce harm. Each Nyxidiae chooses a particular path of esoteric knowledge on which to focus. Be it divinations, rituals, natural ephemera, or alchemy, the Nyxidium are meticulous in their scholarship of protective practices. Once befriended by a human companion, they are tenacious guardians of their keepers."
We will be presenting an amazing collection of these cryptic creatures and learn more about their cunning and clever ways!!!

Show runs thru August 16th!!!
