MAY 29 - JULY 3, 2026

Tattooers are incredible artists– they are constantly creating. Does their profession inform their personal artwork, or vice versa? Could one exist without the other? This invitational, group exhibition explores that relationship and looks at the fine art side of the tattooing industry.

Join the artists for a day of tattooing at The Launchpad! Saturday, May 30 from 11am-6pm (first-come first-served, 18+)

What started as a figurative investigation while attending fine arts school has turned into a divergent exploration on the evocative power of materials (paper, pumice, wheat paste, fibers), techniques (décollage, shodō, burning, ripping, tearing, stabbing), and the balance between: subtraction-addition, destruction-creation, chaos-order.

Ben and Chris share a forty-plus year friendship centered on the exploration and interplay of artistic ideas. Their work embodies their shared creative vision, their love and care for each other, and their emotive depth. This 2-person exhibition will explode with expressive dynamic paintings and sculptures, embellished charcoal drawings, and whimsical amorphous ceramics explores rich possibilities in abstracted form, color, and line, informed by their long-lived conversation.
