Laura Montoya - Woodblock Print, Ceramics, Painting
Lala Montoya was born and raised in Medellín Colombia, a land of strong mountains, ancient lakes and careful campesinos.  Currently rooted in the Hudson Valley in Poughkeepsie, NY, Lala was born and raised in Medellín, Colombia, a land of strong mountains, ancient lakes and careful campesinos.  It is this abundance of nature, and the abundant nature within each of us - the way nature is expressed in the body, in the work of Life - that inspires Montoya’s powerful earthen art (ceramics, wood carving, painting, printing blocks). It is through these mediums that Montoya seeks to illuminate the beauty of time, of age - to make transparent the small details often missed in the rush of progress and perfection. It is by working with youth in her partnerships that this work stays vibrant and alive.

Randi Chalfin - Collage, Painting, Drawing, Art Therapy
Randi Chalfin b. 1954 is a multimedia artist based in New York’s Hudson Valley formally educated in Textiles and Art Therapy, MA in Education from Columbia University. From landscapes that are a basis for her abstractions, Chalfin’s explorations of texture are tenderly executed through paint, printmaking, and collage on varied surfaces. Stemming from her 1980-2000 series featuring 8 foot pumice paintings, she now works on a smaller scale, reflecting a desire for increased intimacy. The resulting works are a series of circumstances and unique tactile surfaces that provoke the viewer’s imagination and memory, inviting us to delve into quintessential moments from our lives. Chalfin’s most recent exhibitions include “Tides of Unfolding” in Hamburg, Germany and “Kitchen: Utilitarian Made Beautiful” in Poughkeepsie, New York.

Suprina - Sculpture, Installation Art, Video, Multimedia, Curator/Director of CONVEYER/OR Gallery
I was physically born in America. In regards to my ethnic background, I am as American as they get- a little of this, a little of that. Slavic/German/Irish/Jewish/Lutheran are what I know of but I'm sure other blood was picked up along the way. So there’s the DNA.” My interests lay in creating carnival-like narratives themed around our politics, our environment and our societal trends. I strive, using any material I deem worthy, to broadcast loudly my intent. Allocating, modeling, casting, photography and video are some of the processes I use. I’m not strong or courageous, but I don’t mind climbing out on a limb. In some strange way I’m comfortable there. I celebrate us, and our absurdity. We are beautiful, horrid, tragic, and profoundly funny.

Andres San Millan - Sculpture
My art is often a response to the art process itself; be it to the joy derived from successful projects or to the difficulties and frustrations inherent in the making of and living from daily art making. I often land in a world of rethinking aesthetics out of necessity while being thrusted to the subject of our basic humanity, to the workers that do the basic tasks that keep us going: The laborers. The materials I choose by necessity are those we disdain as unworthy. Together, the bruit art derived, completes the picture of who we truly are.

Joan Belmar - Printmaking
Ever since coming to the United States in 1999, I have been interested in exploring the properties of contemporary materials, such as plastic, paper acetate, vinyl, fabric, and Mylar, etc. I like when the organic qualities of the acrylics, gouache, and ink mix and move spontaneously on a fixed structure, canvas, plastic, or paper. Metaphorically, they are in search of freedom in a structured world.   I play with light, transparencies, and the sculptural qualities of these elements to evoke the concepts that are important in my work:  Time, Change, and Movement.

Debra Santora - Art Therapy
Debra Santora, LCSWR PC is a licensed clinical social worker who has been in practice for over 20 years
with expertise in the treatment of trauma and trauma related disorders. Debra is certified in EMDR, and she utilizes collage as a means to explore parts (IFS Model) of ourselves to further inner reflection. The IFS model states that it is the nature of the mind to be subdivided into distinct sub personalities or parts and these parts show up as emotions, sensations or actions.  It is through free association and use of collage materials that we can create a visual to reflect the parts of ourselves that may have taken on a burden or have  been wounded.  As we release our parts from extreme roles we can restore harmony.
