Megan Cahill (a.k.a. meggykay) is a visual artist and musician currently based between New York and Central Florida. She combines musical composition and production with filmmaking and photography, often using visuals to inspire a song rather than the reverse. The work on display is part of a larger concept album she is working on titled “Songs for Screen,” a collection of music inspired by moving images. “Prospect Park” captures a day shared by lovers in the park, leaning into the feminine, dream-like energy of a spring day in the city. Megan utilizes Super 8 filmmaking, medium format, 35mm, and digital photography. Her original music project can be found under the stage name “Surf Witch.”

Shamus Clisset (aka FakeShamus) is a Brooklyn-based artist working with 3D modeling, rendering, animation, and simulation. He has exhibited in and around NYC for over 20 years. He moved to the city in the spring of 2001, just a few months before the attacks of 9/11, and has lived here ever since. His long-running body of work forms a darkly humorous mash-up of contemporary banality with historical points of reference, emphasizing the violence that simmers beneath the surface of our modern cultural wasteland. His high-res, digitally perfect subjects are stand-ins for illusions of control and over-compensation; satires of ambition and (non)progress distorted through the prism of contemporary media. FakeShamus’s world is reborn from a post-meaning void of memes, the alternate realities of video games and online identity, our fading sense of history, and a bleak future. But it’s fun!
