Ben Boothby Ben Boothby
Ben Boothby is a painter and woodworker living here in Portland, his dual practice explores@memory, architecture, and perception. The “Memoryscapes” are paintings of a specific place from the distant past, layered with the different moments that happened there.
The “Veneer Paintings” are architectural constructions, extending off of the wall, that play with illusion and exaggerated depth. The inspiration for the Veneer Paintings are complex shapes that happen in the layers of the Memoryscapes.

Honored to show you Ben’s exciting work as part of
In The Particular Exhibit

“My series of miniature dioramas in vintage slide viewer boxes originated a few years back when I was trying to quickly make something small and fun for a holiday yankee swap. I loved the outcome and fell in love with the process. The pieces have depth, complexity, and a hard to define interiority - they’re like little sculptural one-liners.”

Come and take a glimpse into Ian’s magical world.
He has 5 pieces included in this exhibit. I’m always so excited to show his work.

Vayne bucket_head77
Vayne is a graffiti writer from the Southeast.
“I’ve recently been doing a series of small abstracts. The idea behind them to strip away the letter aspect of Graffiti, but to embrace all the other elements. So even though it’s not directly Graffiti, I still wanted to capture the feeling and energy and danger of Graffiti.”

Tanner Wilson 𝕿𝕬𝕹𝕹𝕰𝕽 𝖂𝕴𝕷𝕾𝕺𝕹
Tanner was born in Indiana, and like many kids in the ’90s, his introduction to art and design came through music, graffiti, tattooing, and skateboarding.
“These paintings are meant to serve as a snapshot into the regular, mundane things we do throughout life as a human race. They are a stolen memory from a moment in time where someone lived and breathed. They are a
torn page from an atom of a second that will never come around the same way again.”

Tanner will have 3 of his pieces in this exhibit.
He also co-curated In The Particular. This is our 6th exhibit curating together. It’s one of the highlights of my year. It’s always an exciting exchange of ideas and so much fun!
Make sure to come see what we have created for you!
