Far beyond the pure visual aspect of the world around us, it reaches deeper, seeking out what cannot always be named. It connects with the parts of us that sit below the surface, those knowing, unseeing depths that arc toward all we do not understand. We look for it everywhere, whether we know it or not. Those scraps of further meaning hinted at just below the surface. At times we recoil from it, unwilling to hear what it has to say. We wish to know the secret but want it kept from us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/dana-degiulio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dana DeGiulio<\/a> lives and works in Brooklyn where she has been hard at work as a painter in her studio. She is also a teacher and at the time we spoke was anticipating the start of her new semester. DeGiulio paints flowers perceptually &ndash; her process is to purchase flowers and bring them to her studio where she paints one a day as they wither. The challenge is to render the same thing every day as it changes. She has been creating these paintings over the last five years or more. DeGiulio says she takes interest in every day weighing the same. This project is one way for her to track that. To hear more about this series and DeGiulio&rsquo;s other work, including a book project, <a href=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/dana-degiulio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">listen to the complete interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/dannielle-tegeder\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dannielle Tegeder<\/a> opened a show in August at the Elizabeth Foundation in New York as well as one in Chicago on November 2. Tegeder is also a resident studio artist at the Elizabeth Foundation in Times Square which is the biggest studio residency program in the country with over 70 artists from around the world in the building. Tegeder says the culture at Elizabeth Foundation is one of openness where many of the resident artists at all points in their careers help each other. Tegeder&rsquo;s work is rooted in painting and drawing, but in recent years she has begun to explore large-scale installation pieces often based in architecture.
