Tod Seelie: Bicycle Madonna, 2004,&nbsp;Archival Inkjet Print, 6 x 6 inches, unknown edition AP 1, Signed on Verso6" image on 8.25" paperBio: Tod Seelie is a photographer and photojournalist whose work often focuses on the fringe: artists and musicians, subcultures, and a strikingly different view of America. By turns somber and playful, striking, and densely layered with connections, Seelie shoots with a keen attention to light and a wry, sometimes melancholic visual language all his own. At times, Seelie has documented communities and projects that he’s also a part of, as with his astonishing photos of the Swimming Cities junk raft armada, pioneered by the artist Swoon. Seelie has photographed in 25 countries on five different continents and is currently loosely based in Los Angeles.He has exhibited work in many solo and group shows around the world, including at Mass MoCA and the Philadelphia Art Alliance, and presented his work at the Aperture Foundation and MUSUKU in Berlin. His work has also appeared in photography and art books, including The Vice Photo Book, Hijacked, Art &amp; Agenda: Political Art &amp; Activism, The Sense of Movement: When Artists Travel, Rock the Boat, Street World and Backyard Shakedown.In 2013, Seelie published his first book of photography, BRIGHT NIGHTS: Photographs of Another New York, with Prestel Publishing. The book chronicles 15 years of living and shooting in NYC, with accompanying essays by fellow collaborators and cultural observers

Vadis Turner: Pearl Grid on Cutting Board, 2025,&nbsp;pearl earrings and cutting board, 10 x 7 x 1 inches, Unique, signed on backVadis Turner (b. 1977, Nashville, TN) creates textile-based sculptures and mixed media works that reframe traditional narratives of femininity. Through an abstract, material-driven approach, she subverts domestic materials like curtains and bedsheets—often pairing them with utilitarian objects, mineral wool—to challenge and elevate their roles. Turner’s practice embraces the “misbehavior” of these materials, transforming them into expressive, grid-based forms. Many of her works draw inspiration from misunderstood or maligned female figures in mythology, literature, and folklore, reimagining their stories through a feminist lens.Vadis Turner’s first solo museum exhibition was at the Frist Art Museum in 2017, followed by the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs in 2018; Huntsville Museum of Art in 2022 and the Abroms-Engel Institute for Visual Arts at the University of Alabama in Birmingham in 2023. Current and upcoming presentations are scheduled at LongHouse Reserve (NY), Zuckerman Museum of Art (GA) and Frist Museum of Art (TN). Selected collections included: the Brooklyn Museum, Museum of Arts and Design, Bunker Artspace, Hunter Museum, and 21C Museum Hotel. She has completed residencies at the Corporation of Yaddo and the Museum of Arts and Design, continuing to explore how domesticity, abstraction, and gender intersect in powerful and poetic ways.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://www.vadisturner.com">www.vadisturner.com</a>

Wieteke Heldens: The Legend I Did Not Like, 2025,mixed media on canvas, glass dome, 9.5 x 9.5 x 13 inches, Unique, Signed It's a Legend I did not like in a glass dome. The Legends originated from a personal experience. I was on the intensive care and could count nothing but the colors. I started to see all colors separate from each other so I could form a new reality. In this way I can mix them again to a new story.&nbsp;
