Friday, Aug. 30, 5–8pm
JESSICA BECK is a Greenfield townie who grew up taking road trips and going to museums with her family. She really had no choice. She broke with tradition by becoming a fan of street art in its varied forms. She was influenced by Sludge Life, Graffiti on youtube and HipHop. Some of her interests are Old Technology both computer and analog and Retro Futurism. Jessica is currently a student at GCC with a focus on computer programming. She is a member of the GCC neurodiversity club. She also writes and records music.
DARYL BECK, after studying at Landmark College, transferred and completed the GCC art program in 1994. He has also studied at the San Francisco Art Institute. He grew up neurodivergent in a generation that did not use that label. He has a knack for solving mechanical and spatial problems, which comes in handy when driving an old vehicle in need of repair for many miles across the North American landscape. His past artwork has been in the realm of photography, metal sculpture, and multimedia installations. He is interested in the sense of motion, the visual patterns and cultural messaging that are ever-present in the natural and the human-built world around us.
THIS SHOW IS the culmination of many years of parallel play, both as parent and child.
Part of summer@LAVA, funded by the Crossroads Cultural District and Mass Cultural Council (MCC).
