Dorothea Rockburne (Canadian, b.1932) is a painter and a draughtswoman, as well as a mixed media and installation artist. Born in Montréal, Quebec, Rockburne began classic training in Painting, Drawing, and Sculpture in 1942 at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Paris, France, where she studied under the Abstract artist Paul Emile Borduas (Canadian, 1905–1960). After winning a scholarship, Rockburne studied at the Montréal Museum School, where she began to distance her artistic style from the classical manner she had been studying since a young age. Moses Martin Reinblatt (Canadian, 1917–1979), one of Rockburne’s teachers at the museum school, convinced her to apply to Black Mountain College in Asheville, NC, which was known for being the radical art school of the time. Rockburne attended Black Mountain College from 1950–1955, studying a variety of subjects including Painting, Music, Dance, Math, Theater, Linguistics, Philosophy, Literature, Writing, Poetry, and Photography. Rockburne moved to New York, NY after she graduated. Although she won the Walter Gutman Emerging Artist Award in 1957, Rockburne struggled with her art, and so she turned to dance and performance art for several years. During this time she took on some side jobs to support herself, including a bookkeeping job at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY, where she catalogued the Egyptian Antiquities collection. Rockburne took a great interest in the art of ancient Egypt from a young age, and she later incorporated this interest into her works entitled Egyptian Paintings (1979–1980).

Melissa Stern is an artist and journalist living in NYC. Melissa has worked in sculpture, photography and drawing for over twenty years, exhibiting throughout the U.S., as well as Europe and Asia. She has made a multi-media installation exhibition, The Talking Cure, that has been traveling to museums around the States. since 2012. Her work is featured in a number of prominent corporate and museum collections including News Corporation, JP Morgan, The Arkansas Art Center, the American Museum of Ceramic Art, Racine Art Museum, and the Weisman Art Museum in Minneapolis. With a background in anthropology, Melissa’s work reflects both non-Western and outsider-art influences. Her drawings, collages, and figurative sculptures are richly drawn and deeply layered, with quirky, often dark humor. “I work like a handyman cobbling together drawings and sculptures from elements found, borrowed, and imagined. I use a wide range of materials from encaustic to clay, pastel to steel. The drawings and sculptures, often made in tandem, resonate with one another, the ideas in one reinforcing the themes of the other. All of my pieces share a thematic thread. Childlike and goofy my figures live in a dream world, cower in relationships or stand tall in the face of adversity. They are at once dark and funny, expressive of the absurd world around them.” Stern serves as a contributing writer for Hyperallergic, the Brooklyn-based digital arts publication, working at the intersection of the arts, culture, and politics. She has covered major exhibitions on assignment throughout the world. She served earlier as the principle art critic for The New York Press. She is a past Board Director of The Children’s Museum of the Arts in NYC, Watershed Center in Maine and contributing curator of the Human Rights Film Festival from 2008-2015.

Orange Li, who grew up in Taipei and now lives in the United States, is currently creating in her studio at the MANA Contemporary in Jersey City. Her childhood was not always particularly smooth and happy. The memories of her childhood influenced her desire to seek self-identity in society as she grew up. At the age of 27, she decided to leave Taiwan and live in the United States to start a journey to find her most genuine self. Being in a different country, she felt a strong sense of isolation and loneliness, and the hardship of having to struggle in life. Even so, she accepts all the difficulties gladly.
These mixed and intense emotions led Orange Li to look directly at the duality of life, including the Yin and Yang, good and evil, life and death, dreams and reality. These have become the themes that continue to emerge in her creations. On the other hand, she has also experienced a huge culture shock, which became an opportunity to expand her visual vocabulary by absorbing different cultures. Her works not only integrate Chinese and Western elements, but also interweave the philosophy, psychology and mythology of the East and the West.
Orange’s artwork is a hybrid of culture, a fusion of spirit and science, thus bringing the diversity of life in to create the most avant-garde visual and sensory impact, while trying to eliminate the boundaries between them and move towards Oneness.
As a child, Johnnie Grinder had ventured through the giant labyrinth of tunnels that lay out underneath his city of San Diego; he explored them endlessly and discovered that many of the city’s neighborhoods were connected by side tunnels, which could be accessed through the manhole covers. Later, Grinder headed to U.C. Berkeley to study English literature and anthropology while continuing to fill his sketchbooks and journals. He pursued his MFA in the prestigious animation workshop at UCLA.
After spending nearly every waking moment working on his dream worlds, the artist eventually stepped back and began applying his artwork to the canvas and to murals. He painted murals in Prague, Czech Republic, Taipei, Taiwan, and Siem Reap, Cambodia. This led to the completion of Grinder’s first book, The Tunnels of the Mind, and opened him up to the international art scene where he has been commissioned by collectors throughout Asia, Europe, and the U.S.

XVIIDUKE is a Newark, New Jersey based poet & artist.
"I found freedom in poetry. I write to share love, memories, moments and stories with the world. It matters that I write because it matters that I live. The more I live, the more I experience. The more I experience the deeper I feel. I put the time and effort into writing for the expression of emotions. Feelings take time to understand, express and then write. Poetry becomes a release of emotions. Through my poetry I want to convey beauty. As a poet, I want my legacy to be unreal. I became a writer when I realized that one of the most important things to me in this life is freedom. Writing and performing poetry provides me with that. Poetry gives me an opportunity to connect worlds, connect people and connect feelings. For that, I am forever appreciative of the art form."
