“ No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.”

Bridget Griggs (1968) was born in Canada, where she began her creative journey. In her early career, Bridget’s multifaceted artistic abilities manifested themselves through performance art and modeling, allowing her to explore emotional depths and exposing her to the global community, culture and art. Today, Bridget’s canvases express the wealth of her collective experiences, the tirelessness of her inquisitive nature, thirst for the undefined and acceptance of the ever-changing. Exploration of emotion and the constantly-shifting universal fiber are fundamental values of her expression.

Perhaps the most startling aspect of Angela China’s meteoric rise in the New York City art scene is that this self-taught, realist painter did not begin painting seriously until moving to Manhattan in 2010. As a child growing up in Baltimore, Ms. China’s artistic skills were apparent. But for a myriad of reasons, she stopped painting upon entering high school. Now in her Manhattan studio, Ms. China (pronounced Key-nah) has re-found her calling as an artist.

Matthew Ritchie's artistic mission has been no less ambitious than an attempt to represent the entire universe and the structures of knowledge and belief that we use to understand and visualize it. Ritchie’s encyclopedic project (continually expanding and evolving, like the universe itself) stems from his imagination, and is catalogued in a conceptual chart replete with allusions drawn from Judeo-Christian religion, occult practices, Gnostic traditions, and scientific elements and principles. Ritchie’s paintings, installations, and narrative threads delineate the universe’s formation as well as the attempts and limits of human consciousness to comprehend its vastness. Ritchie’s work deals explicitly with the idea of information being “on the surface,” and information is also the subject of his work. Although often described as a painter, Ritchie creates works on paper, prints, light-box drawings, floor-to-wall installations, freestanding sculpture, websites, and short stories, which tie his sprawling works together into a narrative structure. Drawing is central to his work. He scans his drawings into the computer so that images can be enlarged, taken apart, made smaller or three-dimensional, reshaped, transformed into digital games, or given to someone else to execute. One ongoing work that Ritchie calls “an endless drawing” contains everything he has drawn before. Ritchie’s work has been shown in one-person exhibitions at Dallas Museum of Art; Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston; Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; and Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami; among others. His work was also exhibited at the Whitney Biennial (1997), Sydney Biennale (2002), and Bienal de São Paulo (2004).

Leo Villareal is a long time friend and client, currently with Pace Gallery.
“My work is focused on stripping systems down to their essence to better understand the underlying structures and rules that govern how they work. I am interested in lowest common denominators such as pixels or the zeros and ones in binary code. Starting at the beginning, using the simplest forms, I begin to build elements within a framework. The work explores not only on the physical but adds the dimension of time combining both spatial and temporal resolution. The forms move, change, interact and ultimately grow into complex organisms. Inspired by mathematician John Conway's work with cellular automata and the Game of Life, I have sought to create my own sets of rules. Central to the work is the element of chance. My goal is to create a rich environment in which emergent behavior can occur without a preconceived outcome.” -Leo Villareal
