surplus
Exhibited at Vox Populi Gallery, Philadelphia, PA, 5 September 2025 - 12 October 2025
“surplus” welcomes the eight newest members of Vox Populi: catia colagioia, China Rain, Ella Konefal, Eva Wu, Kat Nzingha, Liam Paris, Logan Cryer and Ollie Goss. The octet creates art with accumulated materials, whether they be paperwork, dreams, memories, fears or junk. The resulting hoards are presented with impending empathy. Viewers are asked to consider what is the stuff that we are really made of and what can be done with all the rest.

LOW TECH
Exhibited at Huddle, Philadelphia, PA, 13 March 2025 - 25 March 2025.
The exhibition assembled work from fourteen artists working in a variety of media. Many works are made from recovered materials, such as construction debris, unaccounted data from modern image processing, image transfer negatives, and the electronics inside of a broken insulin pump. Others display a panoply of technological methods and outcomes such as antique electronic phones, handmade electronic instruments, bone conduction, hand-altered film for motion pictures, and low powered devices. The curation of pieces in the show is an offering to indulge in the tension held by the premise of Low Tech.
The show included work by: Catia Colagioia, Charlie Manion, David Rios, Francesca Lally, Gregory Kramer, Hannah Tardie, Jamison Mead, Jazmyn Crosby, Kelly Chen + Caleb Chase, Logan Crompton, Maddie Brucker, Noah Kernis, Ollie Goss, Rachael Henson, and Cristian Varela. Curated by Hannah Tardie & Ollie Goss.
