Kennedy Malsch is fluxus photographer working with digital, analogue film, and analogue photograms. She describes her work as beginning “with the belief beauty is not assigned.

She is a graduate from the Royal College of Art, widely considered to be the finest art school in the world.

light-based performance by Theo Luna As someone who has written over 600 critical essays on contemporary art and artists in their career and regularly writes about some of the most experimental artists on earth, I can clearly state today's avant-garde can bypass history. For example, since time immemorial, art historical canon has largely regulated the visual arts as a fixed-in-time entity....Yet, many of the most experimental artists today are practicing moving-image and per

Foreword: Written by Michael Hanna, Editor of Point Pleasant Publishing. This is not an interview with textile artist Minyu Zhu, but rather, documented conversations and philosophical musings about her practice. As a result, these writings are far more natural and fluid in comparison to a standard interview, and the contents as well as structure are more similar to an autobiographical essay. What strikes me the most about Minyu Zhu is how complex she is, both as an artist and

Written by Adriana Zofia Zimnowoda, PhD. Neon works evoke unease and cognitive dissonance in me. Perhaps this is inherent in their nature. They attract and repel. Made of glass tubing, wires, and gas, they are both material and immaterial, beckoning with a phantom presence. They are ambiguous, like the dim glow of a streetlamp in a run-down neighborhood. Vivid neon is one of Agnieszka Piotrowska’s preferred media. Functioning independently or interacting with installations,

moving-image still by Molly Dario The giant elephant in the room which few seem to want to address is the obvious…the over-commercialization of the arts. Now, don’t be mistaken. Just because we are discussing the over-commercialization in the arts does not automatically mean we are anti-money or have the belief money and art are incompatible. Some ‘art experts’ consistently imply artists are lazy and do not know how to market themselves, however such commentary is misleading.

Textiles are amongst the most misunderstood and underappreciated artforms in contemporary art, precisely because of the fragile and unstable nature of the fiber materials. In the works of Minyu Zhu, a London-based textile artist and graduate from the Royal College of Art, her complex yet fragile structures of textile fragments and installations have cocoon and web-like forms. The basis of Minyu Zhu’s textile works is she creates configurations which accentuate and glorify fra
