Cast in the role of hero, musician, comedian, laborer, and existentialist, Wisconsin photographer Andrew Kufahl infuses each of his images with self-meaning in the face of the obstacles of absurdity and alienation. Captured in meticulous light, Kufahl’s works utilize contrast, color, and depth to render remarkable photographs. “And The Sea Will Know My Name” is a classic, painterly self-portrait, selectively inundated with pipe smoke.

Dark and dislodged from a forgotten dream, the works of Marcin Kwiecień are a prelude to postmodernism, and a rejection of modernism. From Cracow, Poland, Kwiecień works are both haunting and striking, revealing, through dark shadows and power relations, fractured pieces of time, place, and the person Kwiecień may or may not be.

A type of theatre, Dejana Batalovic's photographs are an urban revival, built on the architectural principles of design, structure, and function. Beyond the spectacular façade, through her work Dejona (as she is widely known around the online photography community) reveals the inner workings of her life. "Oh Retro?", with open cupboard, exposed legs, and ominous telephone call, exposes the drama of life and the revelation of urban existence.

As if from a spark, the works of Andy Alcala burst through the confines of the picture plain. There a quality about Alcala's photographs that seems to defy even time, as smoke billows from the artist's very black hair. It the task of photography itself to capture a moment, but Alcala,'s work, with beautiful, stark contrast, distorts and bends the very laws of physics. Ultimately, Alcala makes it all seem simple, a symptom of remarkable photography.

As early as Paleolithic times, human ingenuity and compulsion have combined in the medium of drawing. It may well be compulsion that motivates the works of Adara Sánchez Anguiano. Through drawing, Adara captures human impulses, emotional and physical. Her figures are beautifully rendered, made even more compelling by sketchy, distinctive line work and subtle use of bold color.

From Colombia with care, the works of Maria Carolina Ramirez are composed with confidence, rendered with great skill, utilizing a striking, full-bodied color palette. Rich texture and pattern are seamlessly incorporated; thin lines slice through the image dished out with a subtle, strategic hand. A photographer as well as an illustrator, Ramirez delivers a complete and complex package.

As if found in a shop window, as if from a catalog, as if larger than life, printed on vinyl, hung from the side of a corporate headquarters, Raedeke presents a serialized body of work, often complete with hints of packaging. His drawing, paintings, and sculptures are lustrous, objects to deluge, drizzle, or dull the senses. They are about marketing, about trends, and almost without apology, about our love affair with consumption.
