James Mannix
James Mannix’s first foray into the art world was receiving a summer scholarship for high school students at the University of Potsdam’s program in the Adirondacks. Upon graduation, Potsdam being way too far north, Mannix went to SUATC Farmingdale. This small college didn’t offer the excitement he expected in his ambition for advertising art. Bored with the future of drawing ads for matchbook covers, he tried out for a scholarship to the School of Visual Art in New York City. Mannix lost that prize but was accepted for their Film Studies, majoring in production and title design. The workforce beckoned with low run positions in television commercials from ‘gopher’ to set construction and eventually some design. As paths are interwoven, he eventually wound up in visual merchandising for a major retailer, Macy’s. Those were fun creative years for him. Within a few years, promoted from store to store, Mannix eventually managed a Jewel Box store. There they had great resources and a matching budget to experiment on concepts for the rest of the chain. Leaving the grind to move on for some freedom, he freelanced with Creative Force, an independent visual merchandiser. It was exciting, traveling along the east coast, city to city, doing installations and remerchandising. Eventually, Mannix moved to private industry working alongside Bob Samuels, a decorator from the Midwest, who oversaw an estate in Amagansett, New York. The owners were always remodeling and for them, Mannix created artworks, murals and faux finishes. It was an entertaining time for him. It brought him to work with Robert Isabell, a noted party designer, on four extravaganzas. Mannix spent his free time doing sound production for theater readings, designing programs and filming /editing short films alongside Gaby Rodgers. He later studied watercolor at SUNY Southampton. Doing many workshops at the Art Barge, Napeague brought the artist to come under the tutelage of Norman Seaver, famed east end watercolorist. Since retirement, Mannix has been experimenting in many formats, going back and forth from early works to something new. He is still searching for that special something, always enjoying the journey.

- Florist, Mandala - collage of dead flowersLocated in London, GB‘Florist’ originally called ‘dead flowers’, was created using the flowers from my girlfriends ‘Zoom’ backgrounds over the space of several months. Usually scanned the moment she considered them to be wilted. About the series: " 'Detritus' series was born from the twin frustrations of lockdown halting all planned projects, yet litter still somehow being dropped in abundance on my street. With no idea of the final output, or indeed the hygiene implications, I started to collect, scan, and record what I found. When I realised these colourful misshapen objects could be turned into something beautiful, the frustrations left me and I began looking for other sources of Detritus. Florist, 2020 Series: Detritus Archival Pigment Print, Mounted on Dibond in custom made Frame; with Black Stained Oak and antireflective UV protective museum standard Art Glass Print 60 x 60 cm / Framed: 62 x 62 cm/ 24.5 x 24.5 inches approx.

- Triptych Arcana 07, 08 and 09. Abstract color photographBy Monika BravoLocated in Miami Beach, FLTriptych Arcana 07, 08 and 09, 2023 by Monika Bravo From The Series Arcana Archival digital print Overall size: 24 in. H x 108 in. W Individual size: 24 in. H x 36 in. W "Arcana" stems as a series of unique studies for an upcoming commissioned glass/metal wall at the Interdisciplinary Engineering building at the University of Washington in Seattle. Whimsical elements in vibrant colors interact with geometric silhouettes, inspired by Oskar Schlemmer's Triad ballet and Josef Albers' pedagogical experiments from the Bauhaus era; they also incorporate historical engineering tools. ______________________ Bravo uses multiple treatments of the image, that the artist relates to a specific place, this correspondence between space and transformation has led her practice to focus on the analysis of the places where she lives physically and emotionally, as a result, the works dwell between the document and the anecdotal. Monika Bravo examines the notion of perception by questioning whether the world we live in, is but a mental construction; her artistic practice is used as a tool to decipher the laws that govern the world she lives in. Through this survey, she creates objects by incorporating still, moving, audio and interactive images to generate situations where she can materialize and communicate her emotional state. She wants to challenge the audience’s own perception of what they consider real by generating a platform where they are induced to connect by exploring, interacting, and at times by focusing on an object-place- scene for a duration of time in a manner that is both meditative and investigative. Monika Bravo is a multi-disciplinary artist born in Bogotá, Colombia, who lives and works in Miami. In 1982, Bravo left Bogotá, moving to Rome to study fashion design, which she continued in Paris at Esmod, before traveling to London to study photography. In 1994 she moved to New York. Her work has received acclaim including a 1999 New York Times review which called her piece Synchronicity (from a group exhibition at El Museo del Barrio) a "standout...small, beautifully blurry video images of boats plowing through New York Harbor..." Recent exhibitions: Rubin Museum, the power of intention, 56th Venice Biennale representing the Vatican City-State, at the Pavilion of the Holy See.
