Come see the amazing Mike Stasny during Site and see our exhibit, I Remember When.

His current two-dimensional projects, “COLLLECTION” and “YEARBOOOK,” use pop-cultural objects, forgotten iconography, and found vintage yearbooks as source material. Some of these images are deeply personal. Others are simply, generically old: familiar things pulled from a shared cultural past without any obvious hierarchy or explanation.
The drawings are produced rapidly and in volume, favoring quantity, instinct, and repetition over polish. They function as loose studies of time passed—an almost frenzied form of meditation on the things that once surrounded us and quietly defined reality. Many of these objects and images did not make much sense then, and they make even less sense now.
There is humor in that distance, but also sadness. The passage of time reveals how fragile and temporary the human experience can be. People, products, fashions, celebrities, technologies, and private memories that once seemed permanent gradually become unfamiliar. The objects of our youth were once actions: things we used, watched, listened to, wore, wanted, or believed in. Now, many of them survive only as relics.
We used to be the people in our yearbooks. Now, Stasny finds it both amusing and quietly devastating when someone looks at an old photograph and says, “Wow. Good for you. You still look like yourself.”

Mike Stasny likes to describe his work as “the same thing I was doing at four, but now inside the much larger body of a 45-year-old.”

In practice, Stasny works as a kind of creative polymath. His projects have included giant inflatables, creatures assembled from broken furniture, experiments with economic systems presented as performance art, and serving as co-writer and producer of the viral video “What What (In the Butt).” Across these forms, his work is driven by play, curiosity, humor, and an ongoing fascination with the strange systems, objects, and images that people collectively agree are normal. by @thepollinatorartspace

We are delighted to share Sam Lasseter's work in our current exhibit!

Sam Lasseter received a BFA in sculpture from the Savannah College of Art and Design. He has worked as a fabricator at companies in theater, theme park, and movie industries in Atlanta, Portland, and New York. In 2015 he exhibited in a solo gallery show called Joy, where all of the art was meant to make the viewer smile and share a laugh. This set the course for his current body of work. Lasseter’s work pulls inspiration from the Pop Art movement, enlarging classic American toys and candies into hyper-realistic fiberglass sculptures. He currently works and resides in Atlanta, Georgia.

ARTIST STATEMENT
In my current body of work, I explore classic American toys and candies, magnifying them into hyper-realistic fiberglass sculptures. Inspired by the Pop Art movement, much of the subject matter is pulled from popular culture of the era. The pieces are built with every detail to allow viewers to see and connect with the familiar. I want the viewer to fall into the nostalgia of the toy or candy, to be able to recall their own memories; the way it tasted, where they would eat or play with it, who they shared it with, and/or how it sounded when opened. These memories are so embedded into our psyche and all at once, they come flooding back to us full of emotion and meaning. Not only that, the work is meant for the masses, injecting irony into the white-wall space so anyone off the street can connect with the art. At its core, the work is for the everyday person, to show them a piece of themselves and, just for a moment, recall being a kid again.

Sam will be at SITE October 3rd. Come see his amazing works!

We are delighted to have Ilona Anderson in our current exhibit.

Artist Statement

I am intrigued by the notion of impermanence and change, which is our constant experience.
I craft my animations by following an idea and sometimes include cannibalized sections of previous works, be they watercolours, drawings or large early paintings that have previously been exhibited in the Nelson Mandela Museum or the Carnegie International. I add to this repertoire photos I capture of life around me, shadows, rainbows enticing moments. This compelling approach - using “cannibalism” of my own artwork creates this beautiful cycle of creation, destruction, and rebirth that’s at the heart of impermanence. The fact that i am manipulating it all by hand in Procreate adds an intimate, personal layer to this process of constant transformation, which is both surprising and satisfying.

Biography
The artist resides in Boston MA and will be at SITE! Anderson is originally from South Africa and came to the US on a Fulbright Scholarship. Her works have been exhibited nationally and internationally. We are thrilled to show her still shots from her animation series as well as her video series. Come talk to her about her amazing works.
