Artist @stinky.felix uses industrial machine knitting and sculptural textile construction to create uncanny three-dimensional bodies and oversized heads that feel simultaneously flesh-like and digitally engineered. Through machine-knit soft sculptures and synthetic “skins,” his work stages a tension between softness and infrastructure, asking how intimacy, embodiment, and identity are reshaped within increasingly mediated and technological environments.

IMPULSE writer @parker.ewen writes: “The ‘serializing of the body’—the sense that bodies mean less in today’s digital world, and likely even less in the future’s—is a central pull for Beaudry . . . What does it mean to birth bodies that hold no agency? While serializing the body is removed, impersonal, Beaudry also shares that creating them can feel ‘god-like, even parental’—a big responsibility that places agency squarely back in human hands even as the mechanical world strips it away.”

Felix Beaudry’s works were recently on view at @situations.us in a solo exhibition, “Malleable Young Men.” Read the full feature through our link in bio!

Thank you to Parker Ewen (@parker.ewen) for reviewing 𝘛𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘯 at YveYANG Gallery in @impulse_magazine_. Read the full review here and at the link in our bio: https://impulsemagazine.com/symposium/between-magic-and-reality-talisman-at-yveyang

“In these times, when good fortune seems to evade us, 𝘛𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘯 shows that we are capable of crafting it and recognizing it within ourselves. While this has been true throughout history, it feels especially urgent now. 𝘛𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘯 is a rare experience not to be missed.”

Bringing together a wide array of artists such as Kiki Smith and Martin Wong, “Talisman” at @yveyanggallery addresses the role and yearning for magic in an increasingly complicated material reality. This tension unfolds on curatorial, aesthetic, and conceptual fronts: the gallery space itself is bifurcated into two distinctive atmospheres, and fantastical works stand alongside industrial architecture.

Thinking a lot lately about guarded intimacy and masculinity in my current work.
It feels daunting to post art. When I write, I try to write as if somebody is listening. But when I paint, I dont want to paint as if somebody is looking. You know? by @impulse_magazine_

I remember deciding in high school that after I graduated, I would never again tell anyone that I was trans. At this time in my life, it feels important to be open about who I am and my experiences.
Thank you to all the friends who I felt comfortable opening up to between then and now.
Love to all my trans siblings <3 by @impulse_magazine_

For the past month, I was lucky enough to be an @air_byrdcliffe artist in residence. I cant put into words how transformative this space and time was for me and my work. I got to work among an amazingly talented group of people. Feeling incredibly grateful!! Missing my fellow byrds 🖤 taken in Byrdcliffe Artist Colony by @impulse_magazine_

Spent a lot of my summer trying my hand at digital art.
I think its a good tool to try to train my eyes to identify color more accurately, or at least choose my colors more thoughtfully.. yall got any tips or personal breakthroughs on colors?
