Nathaniel Lampman
Cunard Ocean Liner

Carefully feel around the ship that you can feel the port and starboard view holes. The lightboats on top, the smokestack, deck layers and the masts on either end. The ship is to resemble the Carpathia that rescued the Titanic survivors. I made this because I like trains, ships, submarines, and transportation vehicles. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.

Rose Wittsell
Serene Respite

The waterfall cascades down jagged peaks, providing calm in-between the hillsides and the cave where something is lurking.

Lyss Rogers
Foraging

This wall-mounted piece consists of three mushroom forms made of wooden stems and fabric tops. The shelf they are attached to has an etched wood-grain. Below the surface, the movement of the mushrooms creates sound. It relates to my interest in mushroom hunting.

Nolan Choy
Light Pollution

This piece is a physical recreation of a star map and its constellations using nails and screws put on two different boards. One board is covered by a thin piece of cloth to conceal the 'stars' underneath. This piece is inspired by light pollution and its effects on the night sky.

Paula Busey
Kinetic Zen Garden

Use the textured balls to your left to create textures in the kinetic sand, then feel the patterns of the path you created. To refresh the sand, put the ball back into the rectangle box, then scoop the sand with your hands, and let it drop back into the round sand box.

Gianni Salvato
Giardino

This piece is made of a square panel with a blue painted sky on the upper half, which fades into the landscape that has artificial red and white roses and grasses. This piece is meant to elicit a peaceful feeling.

Feel the Fiction

A forest diorama is placed between books to imitate the feeling of being inside a novel.

Ben Hovet
Orc

This is a sculpted relief of a World Of Warcraft polyhedral Orc Head sculpted with Monster clay screwed to a panel painted with Acrylic and texture paint. I chose monster clay because it has a wax and oil based texture that replicates the feeling of skin, but not just any skin... MONSTER SKIN!

Ralph Hopfenberg

Chaos to Contentment

Moving through life we go between movement and stillness, one leading to the other.

Jodee Whitehead
The Derivate of Rats and Kings

This piece is made up of two panels – each about seven feet long. It is a collaborative piece and viewers are invited to peel and stick stickers from within the larger cooler and adhere them to the panels. The smaller cooler is where the backings can be put. The panels have semi-abstract drawings of figures on them and by obscuring them with the stickers it relates the absurdity of sexual abuse and issues of consent.

Two-foot square wood panel with a silhouette of a dear dog. This is my tribute to my pup – a textured memory of a hike we took together.

Shemirel Barrientos
Peace, Love, Respect, Unity

Inspired by rave culture, this piece represents transferring kandii (bracelets) from one person to another, which is a symbol of unity. Feel free to move the bracelets from one structure to another.

Monica Turner
Fruits of Memory

This piece has three containers – each containing a different fruit. There is one basket in the front, one wooden bowl in the back and one metal bowl higher up. It is primarily scent-based and you can smell the oranges, apples and peaches. When I lived in Ohio, the former owner of my childhood home was a botanist who planted various fruit trees and this piece represents my memory of that place.

Rabbit

You can feel the soft curves of the rabbit and the growths of mushrooms and vines around its body.

Lizard Brain

This artwork relates to the term “lizard brain” – a term, when applied to people, typically signifies that they are functioning less intelligently than usual. I used a range of materials and textures in this sculptural piece including a 3D printed lizard head, a squishy brain and a wood and fabric structure.

Daniel Martinez
Home Screen

This piece is made up of six phone cases that hold different textures representing different apps I use. They are a mix of playfulness and absurd commentary. For example, the half-phone is useless in the way that snapchat is useless to me.

The fall harvest is a mark of seasons passing. This harvest can be felt by exploring the inside of the clay basket.

Adapt

Bean Bag

This is an approximately three feet cube shaped bean bag made of a variety of textiles. It includes a heating element and soft blankets. It is meant to evoke the typical way writers describe sleeping. For example, “my bed is my nightly hug, a warm place to dream. It is the safe harbor from which my soul plays with the black heavens, communicating in the language of stars and feeling the sweetness of the soul-ether.” By Angela Abraham
