StandardVision Artist Showcase: Luminous Terrain and the Reimagining of Nature with Detroit based Artist Suzy Poling. @suz.pol.pod.blotz@light.arc.studio
For the months of February and March, StandardVision presents selections from Natural Phenomenon, a photographic series by interdisciplinary artist Suzy Poling, displayed across multiple large-scale, high-resolution LED facades throughout Los Angeles.
In Natural Phenomenon, vivid natural environments are transformed into vibrant, almost alien terrains. Through optical experimentation, landscapes become abstracted fields of color and texture; organic yet unfamiliar, as if glimpsed from another dimension. These images oscillate between the geological and the synthetic, inviting viewers into a space where materiality feels fluid and perception becomes unstable.
Presented at architectural scale across Los Angeles, the series takes on an expanded presence. Towering above city streets and embedded within the urban rhythm, Poling’s luminous landscapes interrupt the built environment with visions of amplified nature, simultaneously grounding and otherworldly. The monumental format heightens the work’s immersive qualities, allowing color, texture, and abstraction to unfold in ways that shift how the city itself is experienced.
Catch selected works from Suzy Poling’s Natural Phenomenon on view at 3rd Street Crossing, 888 N Vermont, Kurve LA, Sunset Spectacular, and the Courtyard Marriott LA Live through March 31st.

VERNAL @buffaloprescott
At a pivotal time in current history where individuals find themselves in need of existing in both light and dark–Vernal offers artistic expressions with fresh perspectives and budding hope. Marking the birth of spring, this exhibition is embedded with care and intention, an idealized vision of untamed nature conveying possible futures where we learn to coexist rather than dominate. Through immersive installation, soft sculpture, and posthumanist video work, the artists explore a reflection of what could be.
Vernal embraces both the delicate and the resilient, illuminating a sense of growth, verdancy, and inevitable change. In this season of emergence, the exhibition offers not just a glimpse of restoration, but a call to imagine a less human-centered future where we learn to thrive in symbiosis with the natural world.
Featuring new and recent work by:
Shaina Kasztelan
Evan Mazellan
Sara Nickleson
Suzy Poling
Tony Printz
Jane Sasso
Paula Schubatis
Rachel Elise Thomas
Melissa Webb
Jessica Wildman Katz
Renee Willoughby

Art documentation of two of my favorite Detroit artists Shaina Kasztalen @clowntearz and Sara Nickelson @sara_nick from Buffalo Prescott @buffaloprescott . I love working with this art organization. We are in installing the next exhibition for the Vernal Equinox Gala. More to come on that.
Art documentation of this beautiful catalog of the exhibition layout for the “Applied Arts” group exhibition with artists from all over the globe at @uni_galleryofart Northern Iowa University. The exhibition is over but the catalog exists and comes with a risograph zine of the exhibition by @midwestpressed . Designed by Sonnenzimmer. Edition of 500.
Curated by Midwest Press, Tim Dooley and Aaron Wilson, the exhibit embraces the magic of multidisciplinary artists-who seamlessly merge design, music, fashion and technology into cohesive practices . Through this exhibition, we can celebrate collaboration and ephemera, challenging rigid art market norms. “Applied Arts”, highlights artists reshaping culture from within, blending the practical with the visionary.
