“Beautiful Silence” paints a picture of tranquility in response to the noise of current times. Evolving from heavily textured oceanic scenes, the artwork underwent a journey of reduction until it captured the essence of a serene sky. Melissa Wiederrecht stripped her signature textures out of the work to reveal a yearning for silence. As external demands increase, the artist seeks to break free from these pressures, pursuing the light that comes from untethered creativity.

“N=12 is an experiment in building intentional community, with 12 artists collaborating across seven time zones. Contemporary computer-based artists create their work while connected to an effectively infinite network of information. This affords artists the capacity for infinite input and collaboration, leaving them to distill these disparate connections and experiences into their artwork. Distinctly, the computer artist’s principal tool for creation is also a means for connection. This exhibition leans into the inherent proximity of computer users by explicitly asking 12 artists to create work while in constant dialogue with one another. These artists convened and collaborated online over several months, sharing their code and artistic processes while fostering a co-creative microcosm enriched by weekly meetings, aesthetic critiques, code reviews, and vibrant discussion.” — Aaron Penne
