✨ **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. 🌍💔
🌞✨ Mark Moore Fine Art invites you to explore the exclusive ARTSY online exhibition, “A Place Where We Are In The Sun,” by the talented artist Amy Elkins.
In her powerful series (2022-present), Elkins weaves a narrative that connects family archives, historical documents, and early Alta California maps, illuminating the stories of land loss, assimilation, and resilience amongst Indigenous, Mexican, and multiracial ancestors in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.
Don’t miss this opportunity to delve into a narrative that is as enlightening as it is transformative. Join us in reflecting on the landscape of our past and present.

IMAGE: Penelope Umbrico, Sunset Portraits from 13,243,857 Sunset Pictures on Flickr 10/8/13, 2013 / C-prints / Dimension variable. Gift of the Mark and Hilarie Moore Collection, 2013.010 / COLLECTION OF THE ORANGE COUNTY MUSEUM OF ART
Penelope Umbrico (b. 1957, Philadelphia, PA) uses photo-sharing and consumer-to-consumer websites, mail-order catalogues, and image archives as expansive resources to create installations, video, and digital media works. Sifting through images on the internet using search engines for subjects like TV screens, mirrors, sunsets, and the moon, her work explores the production and consumption of images—and individual and collective identities—with attention to the technologies that both shape and are shaped by these forces.
One of Umbrico’s most iconic works, Sunset Portraits from 13,243,857 Sunset Pictures on Flickr 10/8/13 (2013), is a series of appropriated photographs capturing people standing in front of sunsets, sourced from Flickr (once considered one of the largest photo-sharing websites), a project she began in 2010. At that time, camera technology prioritized exposing for the brightness of the sun, often rendering the individuals in the foreground as silhouettes, thereby erasing the subjectivity of the individual.
Installed at the Avenue of the Arts Gallery at OCMA, Umbrico’s Sunset Portraits contemplates the flood of images in contemporary life while offering a meditation on collective experience through a universal theme. In an era that emphasizes individuality and highlights differences, while often finding conflict in those distinctions, the work presents a strikingly tranquil vision. Like the silhouettes in Umbrico’s work, we find ourselves in a state of solitude while simultaneously sharing in the wonder that unites us all.
Jason Salavon History Painting (Origins/Emergence/Sapiens/Modernity), 2025 Archival print 73.5 x 42 inches Ed. 5 + 2 APs
Mark Moore Fine Art is excited to present an exclusive ARTSY online exhibition of Jason Salavon’s remarkable series, “History Paintings.”
In this innovative collection, Salavon merges historical storytelling, computational techniques, and a critical reimagining of encyclopedic knowledge through generative art. The “History Paintings” project encompasses an expansive narrative of 800 entries, depicting the cosmos’ history—balancing rigorous historical accounts with personal and idiosyncratic reflections.
Each entry is paired with descriptive text and unique generated imagery, showcased in a beautifully crafted hardcover Field Guide alongside four monumental archival prints: *Origins, Emergence, Sapiens,* and *Modernity.* These works collaboratively narrate significant epochs of cosmic evolution, natural history, and human civilization. Accompanying the prints are 800 dynamic video animations, generated from the same prompts, enhancing the overall experience with rich visual textures.
Salavon’s large print compositions seamlessly blend hundreds of generative elements, creating fluid visual tapestries that blur the lines between individual images, embodying both historical continuity and innovative experimentation.
At the core of this project is Salavon’s custom-built generative AI system, SPIM (Salavon’s Pathology Inducing Machine), which explores “off-manifold” visual terrains—areas of ambiguity and unpredictability—to generate striking and unexpected imagery.
By intertwining advanced AI methods, cultural research, and aesthetic inquiry, “History Paintings” engenders interdisciplinary dialogue between art, technology, and narratives of knowledge, inviting us to reflect on how contemporary technologies influence our understanding of history, memory, and visual culture.
Born in 1970 in Indianapolis and an MFA graduate from the Art Institute of Chicago, Jason Salavon has exhibited extensively across the globe, from prestigious institutions like the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the Smithsonian Institution. His works are part of significant public collections, and he was recognized as one of the “50 Under 50: The Next Most Collectible Artists” by Art + Auction Magazine in 2013. Currently, he resides and works in Chicago, IL.
