🎨 Ken Craft (b. 1967, New Mexico) is a Dallas-based painter who primarily works with oil and watercolor. His art marries representation with conceptual themes, exploring personal and natural history, evolution, and the universal struggles of life. Craft often infuses his pieces with comic book characters and narrative elements, inviting viewers into a rich storytelling experience.

💬 Ken shares, “These works are loosely inspired by a snippet from Dawkins’ book, illustrating the evolution of species through generations—such as female rabbits. Each generation bears resemblance to its predecessors, yet if you trace back far enough, the lineage diverges dramatically.”

✨ “Within my paintings, you’ll find echoes of rabbits amidst clouds, rock formations, and the night sky. They serve as reminders of our interconnectedness over deep time. Each fleeting image prompts us to contemplate our place in the natural world. As we navigate these challenging times, I find solace in exploring natural history and reinforcing our bond with all living beings.”

🌿 Ken Craft’s impressive portfolio includes numerous exhibitions across the country and accolades such as the Top Choice prize at Artspace 111 and a residency at MASS MoCA. He was also featured in New American Painting’s #138, highlighting the Western United States.

✨ **Mark Moore Fine Art is Proud to Present: “TRANSPLANTS” by Jennifer Gunlock** ✨ 

@markmooregallery is excited to announce the exclusive online exhibition “TRANSPLANTS” by the talented Los Angeles artist Jennifer Gunlock, now available on ARTSY! This compelling solo exhibition, originally exhibited at California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt, showcases Gunlock’s profound reflections on the intricate relationship between humanity and our natural landscapes.

As the title suggests, “TRANSPLANTS” delves into the significant impact of human manipulation on our wildlands—exploring themes of clear-cutting, construction, and the domesticating of native flora and fauna. Jennifer draws inspiration from her upbringing in Southern California, where the natural landscape has been reshaped by urban development, resulting in a stark contrast between the encroaching city and the fragile wildlands.

Gunlock’s work melds photography, decorative papers, and colored pencil, alongside innovative digital collages and animations. Her landscapes portray the scars left by infrastructure—mines, oil wells, and the ever-present specter of climate change—while provoking thought on how our actions shape not only our environments, but also our future.

Join us in experiencing this urgent and beautifully crafted dialogue on the transient nature of our planet. 🌍💔

Kozyrev’s paintings serve as visual memoirs, capturing fleeting moments and inviting viewers to reflect on the intricate relationship between time and memory. His unique perspective—shaped by his upbringing in St. Petersburg during the remnants of Stalin’s regime—offers a compelling commentary on the evolution of both warfare and art. 

As he poignantly expresses, “Just as the military avant-garde has been ‘lost’ due to changing methods of warfare, so too has the avant-garde in contemporary art.” This body of work pays homage to suppressed movements like Constructivism while illustrating the resilience and healing power of nature. 🌿💫 

Join us on ARTSYand experience how Kozyrev’s artistry not only revisits scarred landscapes but also celebrates transformation and resilience.

In her powerful series (2022-present), Elkins weaves a narrative that connects family archives, historical documents, and early Alta California maps, illuminating the stories of land loss, assimilation, and resilience amongst Indigenous, Mexican, and multiracial ancestors in Southern California. As an 8th generation Angeleno, her work reflects a deep introspection into the historical conditions inherent to the soil—all while highlighting original indigenous names for locations and plant life both native and introduced. 

Elkins, an acclaimed visual artist and educator, tackles themes of gender, race, and identity through a lens that examines the influence of systemic structures—from colonization to power dynamics. Her thought-provoking approach oscillates between formal, conceptual, and documentary styles, inviting viewers to engage with her family’s complex history on Tongva/Gabrielino land.

📸 Discover Elkins’ captivating works that have graced international exhibitions and revered publications, and learn how her art challenges perceptions and fosters understanding about our shared histories.
