Flo Hargreaves

Alex Willow
is a multimedia artist based in Berkeley, CA. Their work, spanning many media such as sculpture, installation, video projects, textiles, paintings, and ceramics, examines the dynamic concepts of home and comfort. With a focus on the natural earth, they use found materials and natural objects to construct conversation about the importance of community and having a place. A queer woman-identified artist, they consider many diverse populations in their work. By living in a cooperative house of 50 people during the height of the pandemic, their values regarding collectivization and interpersonal connection were established and solidified. Their work probes the physical and metaphysical home, thinking of human and non-human animals, working against the capitalist systems of our modern world, and creating an ecosystem of their own.
Lu Agnew
creates work that explores topics including the human spirit, the unity of opposites, the complexities of individual identity, and the constructedness of time. Studying Philosophy at UC Berkeley, Lu is fascinated with the idea of artistically conveying philosophical concepts that are generally inaccessible in everyday life. As a nonbinary person raised in a conservative Midwestern town, they have always used art as a way to release internal tensions that have nowhere else to go. They allow the process of creation to remain visible in their work, electing to include chaotic brush strokes, unconventional materials, raw footage, and other unedited elements to maintain the authenticity of these expressive experiences.
