RIP Chester. The sweetest and smartest little orange boy ever. Cuddle your fur babies close, you never know that it might be the last time ❤️

Well I just turned Side A (35) over to Side B (36).

Thank you for a great year—to everyone who has contributed to my life, trusted me, crossed paths with me, and allowed me to document pieces of yours along the way.

Life as a sober (3 years 9 months + ) music enthusiast and visual documentary photographer has been nothing short of a dream come to life. To be able to experience moments, capture them, and preserve them through my own eyes is something I’ll never take for granted.

I’m truly counting my blessings that I get to make this life happen.

Last night, 'Westward: Tin District' opened.

What began as a simple idea quickly became a surprisingly complicated undertaking: bringing together a group of artists whose paths cross in countless ways, but who are rarely seen together in a single exhibition.

Seeing the work finally occupy the same space made the effort worthwhile. We think the Tin District will make quite an impression.

The exhibition continues through July 19 and is open during this weekend's art walk both Saturday and Sunday 11-5

In Fairness.

An interpretive moving document (in three parts) for Taylor Cleveland’s The Faire featuring Carla Gannis’s Model of Me at Ro2 Art.

A final procession through illumination, patronage, spectacle, exclusion, and the architecture of invitation.

The Faire is a large-scale new media exhibition examining the hidden economies of cultural participation.
Drawing from the medieval Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, Nam June Paik’s televisual lineage, and the theatrics of an art fair, Taylor Cleveland transforms Ro2 into a luminous landscape of monumental projections, looming sculptural forms, live surveillance systems, and flickering screens — part cathedral, part server room, part art fair afterimage. Systems of gatekeeping, extraction, and spectacle exist around art because we participate in them. Our attention feeds them. The work asks what we are actually devoted to — the art, or the machinery that surrounds it.

In Ro2’s new media room, Carla Gannis presents model of me — a cinematic work moving between painting, photography, sculpture, and AI. It is a work about perception: how feeling is translated, how time is rendered visible, and how care becomes the medium itself. It is quieter in scale than what surrounds it, but it reaches further.
Together, the two bodies of work move between the systemic and the intimate, between the economies that surround art and the devotion that sustains it.

Only a few days remain to catch These Faire and Carla Gannis' cinematic work "model of me." join us Friday night at 8pm for Projection Night, when the Gallery is alive with moving images and again on Saturday from 8 to 10 when we have an Art Talk with Taylor and which will begin at 8:30.

Last night the walls were alive.

Taylor Cleveland doesn’t revive old manuscripts — he builds new ones. The iconography is the art world itself: the fair, the collector, the screen, the price. The Faire turns Ro2 into a cathedral of contemporary devotion — monumental projections asking who and what we actually worship when we say we love art.

Next door, Carla Gannis’s Model of Me goes somewhere else entirely. It’s a surreal encounter between Gannis and her AI alter ego, C.A.R.L.A. — set inside a virtual world built from her own sculptures, assemblages, and wearables. C.A.R.L.A. gets upgraded with human senses one by one: touch, smell, sight, sound, gravity. And each time, the limits of what a system can actually know become clearer. It asks what it means to be seen by something that can learn everything — except what it feels like to live, age, and let go.

Two works. One asks what we’re devoted to. The other asks what devotion even feels like to something that can’t feel it.

We’re closed Sunday and Monday. Back Tuesday — and it’ll still be there.

Tonight the gallery transforms.

Taylor Cleveland’s 'The Faire' fills Ro2 with monumental projections — animated illuminated manuscripts pulled from centuries of devotional image-making into the present tense. Part cathedral, part server room, part art fair afterimage. Systems of gatekeeping, extraction, and spectacle exist around art because we participate in them. Our attention feeds them. The work asks what we are actually devoted to.

In the adjacent room, Carla Gannis presents Model of Me — a cinematic work about perception, time, and care as medium. Together, these two bodies of work move between the systemic and the intimate.

This is the kind of work you have to be in the room to experience.

📍 Ro2 Art · 2606 Bataan St., Dallas (The Tin District)
Projections every Friday 8–10 PM · Exhibition through May 9

The Faire

Excerpts from two distinct projected works in the exhibition: a 22-foot illuminated manuscript projection on the back wall, and a separate projection of devotional text about art storage.

Systems of gatekeeping, extraction, and spectacle exist around art because we participate in them. Our attention feeds them. The work asks what we are actually devoted to - the art, or the machinery that surrounds it.

The exhibition is open during regular hours. Projections are best viewed at night.

In Ro2's new media room, Carla Gannis presents Model of Me - a cinematic work moving between painting, photography, sculpture, and AI. It is a work about perception: how feeling is translated, how time is rendered visible, and how care becomes the medium itself.

Night viewings: Fridays, 8–10 PM
Free tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1988050365159

Appointments available for additional evening viewings.
