"What traces will be scoured, hidden, or will be privileged; which signs are immediately relayed, will show? Despite all? This work is concerned less with the materials per se. Rather, an aggregate of statuses is treated as the medium."

"My ideas are manifestations about the personal dimensions, tensions, opportunities and significance of the working class urban life afforded by the “colloquial flou”. They are interwoven in the back and forth that never stops of the hood gathering, dispersed through the horizon with the beat of a “rocking guaracha” backed by the song of roosters, at dawn.

My process is a reflection about the complex multicultural layers imposed and adopted by the colonial experience. Coming for a setting that has not been able to dictate its own landscape (Puerto Rico) my aim is to explore, how colonial communities embody the imposition and adoption of socio economic attitudes, policies and practices."

“Jazz is the primer which propels the work, the tone/feel of every composition is in direct association with the culture. Every object I compose is a physical versioning of a historic recording or happening...”

Ava Hassinger was born in New York, and raised in Long Island and Baltimore.
Her work combines the practice and use of photography, sculpture, video, and performance, generating a mélange of material and indeterminate objects. She questions the boundaries between our physical and virtual realities through an experience of hybrid emotional states.
She is a graduate of NYU with a degree in Photography and Imaging and received her MFA at the University of Pennsylvania. She is currently based in Bodega: MultiCultural Art Center.

“My name is Erlin Geffrard.
I’m a painter from Palm Beach, Florida.
There’s a long history of refugee culture in my background. I’m Haitian and I paint utilizing voodoo aesthetic.
It’s very colorful and very vibrant.
[With this] my paintings have presence
(an aura and energy about them).”
