Born and raised in the industrial hub of Dongguan, China, huiyin zhou 徽音 (they/ta/她) is a transnational queer feminist organizer and community-based photographer, writer, multimedia artist and cultural producer. A diasporic bird constantly up- and re-rooting themselves, they are currently based in Durham, NC, and NYC. They work with digital and analog photography, text, installation, and performance with a relational, reciprocal praxis. Creating with intimate and tender sensibilities, huiyin explores themes related to queer feminism, intimacy, memory, diaspora, and community building.

Blink of an Eye is an exhibition of Bryce Lankard’s archival ink prints from film negatives which investigate the moments and places that one takes for granted, assumes will always be around… and then, in the blink of an eye, can disappear. The events surrounding both 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina brought this project into a deeper personal focus for the artist due to his long-standing connection with both of these unique cities. This sense of apparent sudden loss can be applied to physical objects, such as buildings or cities, and even to concepts like summertime, mortality and youth. Lankard is attracted to quiet moments, childhood icons, off-seasons and isolation, even in the midst of activity. By using the softer, gauzier perspective of cheap plastic cameras these images contain a bit of that sense of nostalgia and sentimentality.
