Sally Heller
Paradoxical Still Life, 2022-2024
acrylic, dimensions variable (approx. 12 x 6")
unique edition of 6, $450
Sally Heller is a multi-material based artist who creates recognizable yet improbable landscapes constructed from cultural detritus. Heller assembles a litany of mundane materials and cultural castoffs into recognizable yet improbable environments that cleverly fuse macro and micro, architectural and organic, artifice and nature. Heller has exhibited widely including the Ohr-O'Keefe Museum, Biloxi; the Contemporary Arts Center, New Orleans; Lawndale Art Center, Houston; and Whitespace, Atlanta. Heller's work is included in the collections of the New Orleans Museum of Art and Virginia Commonwealth University, among many private collections, and her exhibition In Mid Air is on view at the Parlour Gallery in New Orleans until January 25, 2025.

Gabriella Garcia Steib
Miguel Before the Spiral / Miguel Antes de la Espiral, 2022
digital archival print, medium format film, 8 x 10"
edition of 25, $125
Gabriella Garcia Steib works in archives and moving image. Frequenting Nicaragua and Mexico, her work explores the construction of narratives throughout dated processes that connect Latin America with the Deep South. She is interested in ways in which collective memory and images are used to communicate in political landscapes, and she is currently developing a project called "Imagenes de Nicaragua," which seeks to make photographs, documents, and video from Nicaragua more accessible and public. Steib's work has been exhibited across the U.S. and Mexico, is included in the collections of the New Orleans Museum of Art and Historic New Orleans Collection, and will be featured in MoMA's New Photography 2025: Lines of Belonging exhibition.
