Intro from the interview:
We're happy to anounce that Philadelphia painter Keith Breitfeller has launched his portfolio with Heavy Bubble. His abstract paintings are meditative and atmospheric.
We're excited to launch the portfolio website for artist Kevin Broad. We hope you'll visit his site and spend some time looking at his body of work. He has recently returned for a Residency in Iceland.
Quizás Mañana (Maybe Tomorrow), is a body of new work that examines the power of familial connection, place, and story. This exhibition features a new installation, light boxes, and paintings that speak of “visual artifacts,” items that Michelle sees imbued by the characteristics of the person who used them.
A short film documenting Rebecca Gilbert's work in the studio last year as she worked toward her solo exhibition at The Print Center this past winter and spring. The film, which was the project of Joseph Rose, also offers a sneak peek at some of my upcoming works. In addition to making films, Joseph also runs his own letterpress shop, Black Heart Letterpress. The film is eleven minutes long.

An exhibition of small works depicting small creatures. At once intriguing, exotic, cute, and scary, Bugs of Paradise explores the undeniable appeal of the tiny critters of the world.
One of the newest to join our tribe Michelle Angela Ortiz is included in a pop up exhibition entitled Revolutionary. The pop up exhibition lasts six weeks.
The portraits are stills from a video interview of community member, Cruz. Cruz lives in Philadelphia and shared his experience with ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and almost being deported. He spoke about his year long struggle with wearing a probation bracelet, being intimidated by ICE agents, and living in fear in what was once for him a city of hope. — Michelle Ortiz
