STELLAR by IGNACIO TORRES

I created imagery that showcased this cosmic birth through the use of dust and reflective confetti to create galaxies. The models organic bodily expressions as they are frozen in time between the particles suggest their celestial creation. In addition, space and time is heightened by the use of three-dimensional animated gifs. Their movement serves as a visual metaphor to the spatial link we share with stars as well as their separateness through time.

Graphic Designs by Timothy Karpinski

Timothy J. Karpinski grew up near the Appalachian Trail in the woods of New Jersey. As time passed, skateboarding and art entered the picture. To this day, Karpinski still spends much of his time building forts, damming streams, skateboarding and making art. Inspiration also comes from his love of music, outer space, typography, yoga, gardening, children’s books, graffiti, and his love of nature and science. In 2004 Karpinski received his BFA focusing in Graphic Design and Painting from Castleton State College in Castleton, VT.
Karpinski is a master of wit, a lover of folk and owner of one of the finest art reference libraries this side of the Mississippi.
