Entrance is proud to present a two-person exhibition featuring artists Chris Lloyd and Nathaniel Matthews. Both artists conduct extensive research into images as symbols, examining their roles as creators of value and culture, multifaceted vessels of metaphor, and the profound effects of mass media on our conscious and unconscious minds.
Both artists engage with image transfer and the fastidious layering of mediums to reform and re-contextualize symbols and images as a means to new narrative ends Their compositions reflect research into subcultures and mainstream media alike.
Chris Lloyd (b. 1994, Albuquerque, NM) is a multimedia artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Lloyd’s art-making practice re-contextualizes various forms of symbolism and iconography through idiosyncratic techniques of image collection, transfer and use of customized machinery. He plays with themes of nostalgia and personal narrative by manipulating and layering found material.
