Matthew Dercole and Angela Deiffenbach were the 2 artists that gave lectures that I've attended. Their work is interesting and tackles area's of life that most people find strange which is why i really enjoyed there work. It's out of the norm. It's great to meet other artists that take the strange approach. They found their calling and they're sticking to it even tho it's not main stream
Matthew Dercole's work were mostly 3D. He worte a whole story book and then created artwork for the pages and then actually bound the book. His pieces involing the man finding beauty in the carcus of a deer was quite interesting.
Angela Deiffenbach looked mostly towards forms i think. She showed alot of pieces that where like the genetic make up of mechince which was pretty cool. She also swallowed a small camera which took pictures of her internal body. She then made a rump out of clay and made it so she could display it on the wall placeing it so low that if you're curious enough to look into the hole you had to bend over. when you looked in ou saw a slide show of all the pictures that were taken internally of her.
