Fernkas, Mark
New York, NY
www.markfernkas.com
What inspires me to paint? Many things actually, but usually I will see something in my environment that I
want to capture on canvas. Riding the subway, walking down the street, looking out of my hotel room in a
strange city. All of these things can inspire me. I sometimes take what I see and change it in some way to
capture a particular feeling or aspect of the scene. I might focus on one thing in particular zoning in on a
particular activity or moment in time. I like to think that I take things that people might see every day and
capture something special in that everyday scene. I also like to portray scenes that might lead people to
question what is happening, leaving some type of mystery within the painting. This allows the viewer to
place themselves in the painting coming to their own conclusions about what is happening. I am also
attracted to the way light plays on buildings or even the shadows in the subway. Walking down the street
and going from light to shadow and back again, I am interested in how that makes me feel. I like the way
the shadows and light can create their own isolation or openness, depending on how they fall in your path
or from your point of view. I hope you enjoy my work.

Gosser, Matthew
Newark, NJ
Formally trained as an architect, Matthew Gosser has been working for the past decade in the mediums of
photography, video, collage, sculpture and furniture design. Based in Newark, NJ, Gosser has found
constant inspiration within the urban environment, in particular the exploration of industrial ruins. Over the
last two years he has combined that love of urban exploration and a sense of historic preservation creating
a new art form called Ar+chaeology. Matthew creates artwork from artifacts recovered from culturally
significant, yet abandoned buildings. The first application of this concept was The Death and After-life of
the Pabst Brewery, an exhibit at the NJ School of Architecture featuring Gosser’s art work made almost
entirely of salvaged brewery objects. The exhibit put into historic context an important local landmark that
was soon to be destroyed. Gosser is also an architectural consultant and teaches architectural graphics at
NJIT in Newark, NJ.
Gross, Kevin
Tucson, AZ
www.art144.com
Dr. Kevin Gross creates (with his own software) high-dynamic-range spherical-panoramic photographs
with equal parts art and science. Novel nonlinear transformations give his urban and wilderness
panoramas unique perspectives. A professional draftsman at age 15, Kevin developed an early interest in
perspective. In college he developed a theory of mobile vanishing points to create paintings whose
perspective changes continuously across the canvas. As his education in mathematics and optics
continued (Kevin has B.A. degrees in mathematics and physics, M.S. degrees in applied mathematics and
optics and a Ph.D. in optics) these perspective concepts were translated to both panoramic photography
and his academic research in assessing the image quality of SPECT tomographic medical imaging
systems for diagnosing tumors. Kevin currently lives in Tucson Arizona and Boulder Colorado.

Moses, Marc
Bronx, NY
The inspiration for much of my work comes from the visual energy I find throughout the distinctive patterns
and shapes of our urban landscape. Because I aim for representations that are ultimately more emotional
than literal, I do not work from photos but rely upon a combination of my pencil sketches, memory and
imagination. Essentially self-taught in painting, I owe a debt of appreciation to the instructors of the arts
program at Project Renewal, the homeless shelter where I ended up living in the aftermath of a nearly eight-
year cocaine addiction. It was here that I first chose to risk taking myself seriously as an artist and
dedicated myself to developing as a painter.

Rhode Island School of Design, Bachelors of Fine Arts, 1996. School at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston,
Post-Baccalaureate certificate 2003. Cargo containers: massive, cumbersome gateways through which
material goods in their anonymous phase leave or enter our lives; portals through space and time for
Things. I see in these portals what was here before the cargo and the promises. I see what cargo cannot
replace, and I see the potential for change. I paint to convey the beauty and desolation of these pervasive
locations where countries and cultures wear an identical corroded face.
