PD Packard created Armour Clad in LOVE using skills from her years designing in the fashion industry, Packard created a suit from her prints to represent the idea that even during challenging times, our earth, and all of humanity is Armour Clad, and protected by LOVE. To bring the artworks to life she interlaces and overlays live action video with flat animation mediums in combination with music that flow from one scene to the next.

Multimedia artist and filmmaker PD Packard uses printmaking in combination with Nature to create visual poetry that shares her thirst for color, nature, and unconditional LOVE, not conditional romance.

Born in Washington DC, PD Packard grew up in Maryland surrounded by horse farms, and woodlands. Being stung by bumblebees while running barefoot through clover fields behind her house was nothing new to her. Her childhood experiences with Nature have been a strong foundation for her LOVE of color and pattern.

Simona Prives’ Timewaves is a mixed media animation combining specific video, multiple forms of printmaking, watercolor, collage and drawing In collaboration with Ross Williams, sound designer.

Simona Prives is an artist, designer and educator. Simona makes work that is about locating ourselves in the built and natural environments at this particular moment in history. She creates collages that focus on the process of decomposition and reconstruction, the dialectic of growth and decay, and that examine our complex relationship between the organic and the man-made.

To make each collage, she draws, disassembles and reconfigures maps, geological patterns and industrial imagery to breed new worlds that are at once familiar and abstract. Every artwork combines multiple forms of printmaking, using fragments of screen-prints, monotype and found material to assemble the composition.

Soil by Meejin Hong

Meejin Hong’s Soil is a paint-on-glass animated film exploring the life cycle of an organism and dualities within human nature. It was created frame by frame on a multi-plane setup using Akua Intaglio Inks and Akua Liquid Pigment. I utilized the reductive monotype technique to make each frame only to wipe away and start again for the next frame. With this medium, I found the temporary and repetitive nature of the process kindred to Buddhist sand mandalas that are destroyed once they have been completed. This impermanence allowed a stream of conscious brainstorming, propelling me into the fantastic, more primitive side of creation.

Meejin Hong is a director, animator, artist based in Los Angeles combining hand crafted 2d, stop motion and digital animation techniques for music videos, visuals for live performances, short films, and commercial work.
