“Floater”
Clint Jukkala, Alexander Kroll, Evan Nesbit,

the work of six painters, whose abstracted imagery is located between the familiar and peculiar, revealing spatial ambiguities and vague references. Most of the work emerges out of abstraction and plays with its conventions and classifications, much like the “floater” that moves about your field of vision. “Floaters are deposits of various size, shape, and consistency that exist within the eye’s vitreous humor. They may appear as spots, webs, fragments, or threads that float slowly before the observer’s eyes.”
