ARTISTS PRESENTED
Duygu Aytaç
is a photographic artist from Turkey living in Boston. For Atlantic Works Gallery's new member show she will be exhibiting photography from her latest project tentatively titled Ankara 1974 as well as two new serigraphs from 2024. Aytaç's work has often explored themes of childhood memories indoctrination and one's place in a social group. These questions deepened and took on new meaning after she immigrated to the United States as an adult in 2015.
Jean M Bernstein
My photography is based in things and ideas that are interesting to me but also has something that feels familiar. I think that familiarity can draw people in and can spark a connection.
Jeff Briggs
Former landscape painter from the Hudson Valley and longtime East Boston resident with a studio in Atlantic Works building. Jeff will present a large painting that reflects on night driving color field abstraction and heavy metal.
Elsa Campbell
is a mixed artist living and working in East Boston. She describes art making as a discovery of what hides in plain sight - offering a clearer understanding of her experience allowing the creation of a new sense of order. Elsa’s art practice has evolved over the years beginning with photography. Exploring alternative photographic processes led her to collage and artist books incorporating drawing mixed media and painting. There is a visual thread that seamlessly connects these bodies of art to one another.
Nick Di Stefano
is fascinated by the intersection of design technology and people. A multidisciplinary artist his work centers on typography and the deconstruction of spaces often engaging with political and social themes. His bold compositions use text as a tool to inspire reflection and dialogue challenging viewers to think critically about the issues that shape their world. With a career in experience design and a foundation in art history and fine arts Nick brings a thoughtful human- centered approach to his artistic practice. His background in installation and public art fuels his exploration of how design impacts human interactions and perceptions. Nick’s passion for letterforms and wordplay engages audiences in meaningful and unexpected ways.
Daniel Gaviani
I like to paint for the sake of painting. You can learn about yourself have fun and make a big mess. To spend time with your thoughts and learn to reinvent yourself is a great privilege and that’s what the act of painting is for me - a true moment of authenticity!
Katie Kimbrell
I am mostly an abstract painter however unseen worlds (like those known about through science) often mix with urban landscapes and seascapes inspired by living and working in East Boston.
