RESIDENCY EXHIBITION SERIES MARYA TRIANDAFELLOS: FLEUR-ISH FEB 23 – MAR 23, 2026 🔗 view online - link in profile “Fleur-ish” features post-photographic work by Artist-in-Residence Marya Triandafellos (@marya.nyc ). The exhibition includes AI-generated images that consider cultivation as both an act and condition of flourishing. Drawing upon research into native New York flora, images of plants are created through a generative process using AI technology. The hyper-idealized expressions are shaped through further digital manipulation culminating in artworks that contemplate how technological constructions of nature reflect our human desires. “…Flourishing is framed not as a natural guarantee, but as an ongoing practice shaped by participation. The work acknowledges that even at monumental scale, it may go unseen. That possibility is part of its meaning, reflecting the difficulty of cultivating awareness within contemporary life and the effort required to truly notice what sustains us…” — Marya Triandafellos Marya Triandafellos is a digital artist based in New York, NY working at the intersection of technology, art, and public interaction. Marya’s experience spans design, video, and digital art. Public art projects include artworks for the Paramount Theater in Asbury Park, NJ, NYC Parks’ Art in the Parks program at Washington Market Park, the Oculus at the World Trade Center, and American Museum of Natural History. Her work has been presented in gallery exhibitions and art fairs including ChaShaMa storefront(NYC), Frieze (NYC), Superfine Art Fair (Miami and New York), and The Other Art Fair (New York and Brooklyn). online exhibition curated by @laurasplan #plexusprojects #artistresidency #onlineartistresidency #virtualartistresidency

OPEN CALL ✨ | To Whomever Is Listening I’m inviting you to participate in my next art project, To Whomever Is Listening—a speculative addition to NASA’s Golden Record. Launched into interstellar space aboard the Voyager spacecraft, the Golden Record carries images and sounds meant to represent life on Earth for any intelligent life that might find it. This project asks a quieter, more tender question: If our message is our ability to love, what would we send? This absurdist and sentimental project gathers love stories —big, small, unfinished, remembered…and transforms them into data visualizations as a way to reveal the persistence of our humanity.

VITRINE EXHIBITION SERIES NOV 21 – DEC 21, 2025 Trevor Nathan: Goofy Mass 🔗 view exhibition online - link in profile🔗 Goofy Mass features recent work by multidisciplinary artist Trevor Nathan (@trevorxnathan ). The exhibition features an artist books and browser-based animation exploring post-digital notions of photography. With techniques ranging from digital animation to hand-cut magazine collage, Nathan constructs images from accumulations of individual parts to create dizzying tableaus and unfolding narratives. The artworks heighten the viewer’s experience of the photographic “gaze” in a simultaneously theoretical and visceral sense. “My first experience in my high school darkroom was processing images I had taken of myself as triplets using the bulb setting on my camera. It was my first successful attempt at spirit photography. I watched the image appear in the developer, revealing my three ghostly likenesses. The realization that I could fake reality cemented my fascination with photography.” — Trevor Nathan Trevor Nathan is a multidisciplinary artist in Brooklyn, NY, working in photography, collage, and video. His work explores the extractive nature of photography by mixing handmade collage with digital manipulation. His work has been featured in King Kong Magazine and Sensitive Content Magazine. He is also the creator of Long Legs, a free art studio share in Gowanus. ABOUT PLEXUS PROJECTS Programming includes both online and in-person Exhibitions and Residencies representing local and international artists.

Revolving Red Monuments” features recent work by Artist-in-Residence Meredith Drum.
