Employing video and performance to interrogate the absurdities and contradictions of late capitalism, artist Lex Brown presents Carnelian, an immersive installation of paintings and video. Blending spoken-word poetry, original music, and experimental visual language, Carnelian investigates the psychological and social conditions of contemporary life shaped by “emergency overload,” political polarization, and relentless media saturation. Immersed in a sensory deluge of images, sound, and narrative, the work navigates a landscape suspended between spectacle and catastrophe.

Bringing together North Pole Studio artists, Mark Bishop and Nathan Ueno, We Are All Brothers explores the enduring power of figuration as a language of allegory, memory, and collective imagination.  At the center of the exhibition is the idea of community: not as a fixed structure, but as an evolving network of relationships shaped by struggle and care. The work invites viewers to consider how images of the body can carry histories across generations and how figurative art can become a site of connection between individual experience and communal life.

Wild Classified is a partnership between North Pole Studio and Patricia Reser Center for the Arts, grounded in a shared belief that art is most powerful when all voices are included. Installed across The Reser’s windows, the exhibition opens a view into neurodivergent creativity – bold, imaginative, and deeply human. Together, the two organizations widen the window, creating space for more voices, more stories, and more ways of seeing.
