“Brokenflo” Patrick Tarrant
Brokenflo is an intermittent serial portrait that explores the rhythm and deep structure of cyclists involved in their daily commute. People emerge over time from their collective, soft-focus anonymity and fleetingly present themselves for this long-lens portrait before disappearing again into the flux and flow of the city.

“Light and shadows 6” Andrew Payne
Light and shadows 6 is a film recording the changing light and shadows on the walls of a room as the sun sets. It is a silent, time-lapse film that captures the movement and vague shadows of leaves and branches of a tree outside the house as they are projected into the room by the setting sun. As the sun changes its position in the sky during the year, the nature of the light entering this space will also vary, projecting different shadows into the space of the room. – AP

“Myths” Karen Y. Chan
An abstract representation of the sun created by a video of ocean water on a beach. There is a subtle energy contained in its geometric form that appears to be alive and breathing. It is a short meditation on movement and life that can emerge from real and ethereal connections. – KYC

“Rise & Fall (Beijing)” Kate Casanova
In the performance for video, Rise & Fall (Beijing), the artist, Kate Casanova, lies on the ground with a camera held to her chest. The image of the sun rises and falls with her breathing, stitching together the human body and its surrounding environment which, in this case, includes the ever present haze of pollution that hangs heavy in the Beijing air. – KC

“Megurs Ehd Ffleweh Bq Nsolst” Charles Woodman and Christopher Bailey
An ecstatic chant greets the rising of the sun.
Sound and image are juxtaposed and find moments of synchronicity, while remaining parallel and separate.
Time rushes forward slowly. Narrative is everything and nothing. – CW | CBvideosavant.org

“Greetings to the Ancestors” Ben Russell
Set between Swaziland and South Africa, in a region still struggling with the divisions produced by an apartheid government, Greetings to the Ancestors documents the dream lives of the territory’s inhabitants as the borders of consciousness dissolve and expand. Equal parts documentary, ethnography and dream cinema, herein is a world whose borders are constantly dematerializing. – BR

Art in America: Atlas Chicago Stability and Flux
Art in America, April 2015 cover.
In an Art in America article about Chicago’s galleries and alternative spaces Michelle Grabner wrote:
“Complementing its commercial venues, Chicago has a handful of small, not-for-profit spaces that give mettle to the city’s visual arts scene by providing artists with a platform that is neither DIY nor commercial. The 12-year-old Threewalls is perhaps the best known of these spaces, continuing in the tradition of Chicago’s influential Randolph Street Gallery, which helped shape the scene here in the ’70s and ’80s. Threewalls is widely esteemed for its SOLO exhibition series and for helping to support anothing Chicago-based nonprofit, ACRE (Artists’ Cooperative Residency and Exhibitions), which hosts ACRE TV, a livestreaming network programmed by artists Kera MacKenzie, Jesse Malmed, Andrew Mausert-Mooney, Nick Wylie and others.”
