Eva Struble, knot, 2020, acrylic and oil on canvas, 30 x 40 in.

Eva Struble was born in Elsmere, Kentucky. She received her MFA in painting from Yale University in 2006 and her BA in Visual Arts in 2003 from Brown University. Eva’s paintings and installations deal with landscape through the lens of social and environmental histories in cities where she has lived. Her colorful work undermines traditional viewpoints and modes of depth using oil, acrylic, screen-printing, and textile media in various combinations.

Recent projects have been exhibited at the Wassaic Project in Wassaic, NY; the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego; and public projects at the San Diego Airport; the New Children’s Museum; and the San Diego County Operations Center. She is an Associate Professor at San Diego State University.

Angie Jennings, The Sea is Coming, 2019, chalk pastel on paper, 18 x 24 in.

Angie Jennings is an interdisciplinary artist who investigates hierarchical constructs of circumstance, often employing strategies of subversion, satire and obfuscation. Identity, isolation and the formation of new mythologies are notions heavily imbued within her work. Jennings aims for the uncanny through processes of edging up next to commanding yet unassuming modes of exploitation and exaggeration. The performativity of both body and materials are expanded through sacred realms of otherness.

Recent awards, performances, and exhibitions include: Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego; Wagnall Museum of Contemporary Art; Woman’s Caucus for the Arts; No Gallery; Abode Gallery; Human Resources; Museum of Contemporary Art Tucson; Joan Mitchell Foundation Emerging Artist Grant Nominee; NADA NY; Galerie Christine Myer; LAST Projects; OCHI PROJECTS; and Commonwealth and Council.

Joe Yorty, Figures in a landscape, 2018, found pottery, MDF, Formica, acrylic, fluorescent lights, houseplants

Joe Yorty is an interdisciplinary artist who employs a range of materials, objects, and methods to make work that largely addresses the anxieties and absurdities of American domestic culture. Including sculpture, collage, video, and photography, his studio practice grapples with the stuff of thrift store refuse, last-minute estate sale deals, and the occasional dumpster dive to rub against the pathos of the ceaseless search for fulfillment in the accumulation of things that, to a large extent, defines the American experience in the 21st century. His work has been shown on both coasts of the United States and some places in between. He is the founding Creative Director for the not-for-profit gallery and project space BEST PRACTICE in San Diego.

An essay on Yorty’s work will be published by HereIn in April.
