Chris Olsen merges performance, audio, film, installation, and new media into experiential works that explore mystery, identity, humor, and the human experience.

My work is inspired by the ontological questions which explore the nature of existence and experience.  I ask through dilation, deconstruction, and examination.  I find resolutions through naming, ordering and reconstructing.  I ask ‘What Is There?’ because I believe composition affects function and I ask ‘Why?’ because understanding affords us choice.  Becoming more aware of what’s going on allows us to work with the elements involved more efficiently and absolutely.  We, then, are able to think and behave in ways less contradictory to our truth (whatever we decide that to be), ultimately

Caleb MacKenzie-Margulies (b. 1992, Malden, MA) works with photography and music, and is particularly interested in paper, reproduction, mass production, and individuality. He uses quotidian objects and photographs as diaristic, autobiographical indexes, and includes the conditions of his work’s production inside of its prescriptive frame. His work unmoors its audience from the certainty that images exist in a plane separate from themselves, and challenges viewers to take part in its existence.
