Zoë Camper is a London-native, Las Vegas-based artist whose work explores the intersection of technology, creativity, and the human experience. Working across fantastical landscapes, portraiture, industrial imagery, and conceptual works, Camper begins each piece with a story, often a commentary on how technology shapes or complicates our lives, with pencil as a favorite medium.
Camper situates Still Life with Technology within a tradition stretching back to the industrial revolution, "From Charlie Chaplin's questioning of the machine in 'Modern Times' to Umberto Boccioni's exhilarating ideals about technology's possibilities, modern-day artists have created a vital and powerful dialog about the impact of technology." Still Life with Technology carries that conversation forward.
Romina Villarreal is a Nevada -based mixed-media painter with an emphasis on figurative expression. Her work explores the experiences of diverse social groups through painting. Originally from San Antonio, Texas, Villarreal is a proud Chicana artist. She earned an MFA in Studio Art from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and a BFA in Painting from the University of Houston. Villarreal has exhibited nationally and internationally and is currently an instructor at the College of Southern Nevada, teaching at both the Henderson campus and within a Nevada women’s correctional facility.
Speaking about her work, Villarreal says that candid whimsicality can be seen in performers throughout the city of Las Vegas. From the intimacy of karaoke spaces to the grand spectacle of large-scale productions, entertainers provide a full spectrum of human expression. Throughout the year, one can encounter ghouls, wizards, angels, and more invoking theatrical magic for ever-changing audiences. Spotlight is a series of paintings that captures and honors the variety of performers who move through these stages and streets.
She says the works reflect the spirit of performers commonly found across Las Vegas, including those from drag shows, jousting tournaments, disco performances, and beyond. This series is inspired by artists such as Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Keith Haring.
It's Elemental Dance Company’s third annual Choreographers Showcase, Threads. Expect an inspiring evening celebrating creativity, collaboration, and community through the art of contemporary dance. Through contemporary dance, the performers artists will weave together themes of mental health, vulnerability, resilience, and healing.
Each work offers a unique perspective on the ways our stories intersect. How moments of struggle, growth, and transformation connect us in ways that are both deeply personal and universally human. Through movement, texture, and storytelling, the choreographers invite audiences to witness the invisible threads that link us together: our relationships, our inner battles, and the resilience that emerges when we allow ourselves to be seen.
Also on the 27th at 1:00.
