About the Item
Kathy Kissik’s *Balance Factory* (2024), from her *FundaMENTAL Factory Series* at Factory 48, is a captivating mixed-media artwork that incorporates collage, acrylic paint, found objects, a repurposed chrome letter "O," epoxy, and varnish to explore the delicate equilibrium between order and chaos in contemporary life. Measuring 8.5 x 7.5 x 3.75 inches (21.6 x 19.1 x 9.5 cm), the piece invites the viewer into a multi-layered visual experience, where the interplay of textures and materials evokes a sense of both harmony and tension. The chrome "O" acts as a central motif, symbolizing unity or wholeness, while the surrounding elements suggest fragility and disruption. The use of found objects, combined with the smooth, reflective chrome surface and vibrant acrylics, creates an intriguing contrast between organic and industrial components. Kissik’s application of epoxy and varnish adds a glossy finish, enhancing the three-dimensionality of the work and giving it a contemporary, polished appearance. *Balance Factory* visually and conceptually probes the balancing act of modern existence, where stability is often achieved through careful negotiation of contrasting forces. By recontextualizing everyday materials, Kissik invites reflection on the ways in which balance is maintained in a world that constantly demands adaptation and transformation.

We Are The Earth
By Elsa Marie Keefe
Located in Brooklyn, NY
We are the Earth is comprised of a photograph, acrylic paint, found objects in nature (bones, leaves, flowers, stones, crystals) and resin. The base materials for the work consist of a wooden paneled canvas that provides the platform for the adhesion of a rolled photographic canvas, a fine art photography print. The canvas print, in this case a double exposure digital photograph, is adhered to the wood using a clear acrylic varnish. Acrylic Paint is added along with the objects that I found in nature, which are all placed in a careful and meticulous fashion, finally cemented in resin. This specific piece of art was my first large scale piece of its kind, created in my studio in Brooklyn in 2019.
This piece was inspired by the colors of my travels, the deserts, trees, mountains and sunsets. The human depicted is myself, it is a self-portrait captured in Great Sand Dunes...
