Art & Design

Alex Da Corte explores the nuances of contemporary life in his videos, installations, paintings, and sculptures, which are often united together in richly-hued, dreamlike environments. Touching upon notions of identity, intimacy, and taste, Da Corte’s work reimagines the familiar in wholly unexpected ways. 

Adam Milner is an artist and writer in Brooklyn, New York. Milner’s practice centers the accumulation and preservation of everyday leftovers. Culled from the processes of living—from sleeping and eating, to walking, working, circulating blood, and having relationships—intimate fragments are contemplated and recontextualized, taking form as sculpture, drawing, intervention, text, and image. As parts are combined and reconfigured in the artist’s home studio, archives or assemblages emerge that offer new ways of considering material and social worlds. Milner’s work has been exhibited in galleries, museums, public space, and at home.
