LIP = Life in Progress  |  AnySquared Projects’ LIP20/20 Exhibit & Arts Festival showcases work that expresses definitions and/or critiques of progress that provokes, challenges, or illustrates. Through all media, artists represent, examine, analyze, or dissect what is actual progress, what some consider progress, and what is not. LIP 20/20 seeks to answer and explore this concept with our work, our art, in our communities, and as human beings, both in the city and the world.  #LIP2020 ARTISTS  |  ADR • Adriana Poterash • Akira • Alejandro Ontiveros Robles • Alexandra Galvan • Alex Wells Shapiro • Alexis Lovely • Alfonso Piloto Nieves Ruiz • Alice Roberson • Alma Dominguez • Amie Sell • Andrew Garcia • Andy Meholick • Angela Davis Fegan • Anna Reed • Anthony Bartley • Applepop • ATYL (Alex Lee) • B'Rael Ali Thunder • Brian Herrera • Cameron Feeley • Carlos Anegas Vazquez • Christian Navas • David Castrejon • dial8r • EAZEL • Ellen Holtzblatt • Emilio Nadales • Emily Holmes • Fire Falco • Flash ABC • Frankie Peace • Frederick Nitsch • Gabriel Patti • The Gray Fox 11 & Korkox • Gretchen Hasse • Haley Achler • Helen Sanchez-Cortes • Holiday Gerry • Iz Mozer • Jae Green • Jameil Al-Oboudi • Jane Michalski • Jerkbeard • Jesus R.

Home Not Home Exhibition at Agitator Gallery

Anysquared’s HOME NOT HOME Exhibit Opening is Saturday June 24 from 6pm–10pm, at Agitator Gallery, 3851 W Fullerton, Chicago. AnySquared’s HOME NOT HOME Exhibition investigates various themes, including: belonging/not belonging, freedom/captivity, safety/danger, comfort/discomfort, inclusive/exclusive, building/destroying, and place/displacement. HOME NOT HOME is an examination of the complicated dichotomies of the idea of home and aims to demonstrate that while the concept of home is universal, the experience is very personal. Thank you to Agitator Artist Collective for making space and collaborating for this first installment of the series. This exhibition is the launch of AnySquared’s HOME NOT HOME SERIES, which will run through 2024 at various venues in Chicago. See Exhibiting Artists and Full Schedule Below.  ______

ABOUT UGLYBITCHFILMS IG: @uglybitchfilms

I am a recent graduate at DePaul University. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. Although I did not minor in film or photography, I am well-versed in those types of mediums. I often go for the dissociative, nostalgic feeling when creating my artwork. That includes using film cameras, editing photos to look like film, and so on. I’ll use cameras from a couple decades ago to create those emotions. In my photos and short films, it feels like you are living in a dream, an alternate reality.
