Linda Butti's artwork stems from a private place where a combination of emotions and intuitions rule. She studied at various art schools in the NYC area and received her Masters of Fine Art from Brooklyn College in 1975. At Rutgers University, she was accepted into the graduate art history program and studied Byzantine and Medieval art.

Linda's work has been exhibited in eighteen solo shows in the NYC area, including the Asia Pavilion, St. John's University, the University League Gallery of Princeton University, The Newhouse Center of Contemporary Art, and the Snug Harbor Cultural Center.  She has been in over eighty group exhibits in NYC and across the country.

"Exploration is the word that best describes my continuing study of photographic light drawings, a style in which I have been working for the past five years.  In this work I use my camera as a drawing tool.  Through small gestural movements, I manipulate my camera to create compositions of linear networks which project a sense of light, energy and movement; thereby forming patterns that invite a host of subjective interpretations. Feeling the need to explore the energy within the work I have also turned to the use of digital video; enabling me to create more movement, mood and emotion from my photographs. 

I have had eight solo exhibits and over sixty group shows across the United States.  December 2003 was my first international exhibit in Graz, Austria. I was also the recipient of the New York Foundation for the Arts grant in June 2001 and received numerous honors and awards in recent years."

 

Jason Noble was born in Philadelphia in 1975 and spent his first seven years traveling and living throughout 40 states of the Union, until landing in New York in 1982.  He graduated from Bridgehampton High School in 1993 as Salutatorian and continued on to a secondary education at Hampshire College, Massachusetts, studying literature and theatre design.

He spent his adult life traveling, writing of, and photographing this country and abroad. He moved to Arizona in late 1990 to live and continue schooling, which was interrupted by a reckless drive in December of 2000, leaving him a paraplegic in a strange land.  He has since rehabilitated and has, as of the summer of 2003, been living on the East End of Long Island.  He continues to write poetry and create art reflecting the oneness and temporary state of all things.
