FLATSITTER is the collaborative work of media artists Jax Deluca and Kyle Marler. They use old and new technologies, combined with elements of performance art, to craft strange and surreal experiences. Their work exists as electronic meditations in an array of formats, such as live expanded cinema performance, web collections, site-specific installation, and live virtual reality experiences. Jax Deluca is the Executive Director of Squeaky Wheel Media Resources and Kyle Marler is an attorney in Buffalo, NY.
FLATSITTER has presented at the Ann Arbor Film Festival 2015 (Ann Arbor, MI); In the Soil Festival (St. Catharines, Ontario); Everson Museum of Art (Syracuse, NY); Hallwalls Contemporary Art Center (Buffalo, NY); Burchfield Penney Art Center (Buffalo, NY); and Grave:point Studios at Silent Barn (NYC). FLATSITTER received a New York State Council on the Arts Finishing Funds award distributed by The ARTS Council of the Southern Finger Lakes to complete "In Between Spaces" a public art project that exhibits utopian video works in unexpected spaces. In 2014 & 2015, FLATSITTER held consecutive residencies at the Institute for Electronic Arts (Alfred University, NY) and Signal Culture (Owego, NY).

She is particularly interested in dual identities, alternate worlds and our attraction to deception. She recently directed a puppet play The Architecture of Great Cathedrals by Erik Ehn at La Mama in November 2012. She is a recipient of the Henson Foundation Carriage Grant and Residency this May in NYC and is a Princess Grace Award recipient in theater. She is currently an Assistant Professor of Visual Media in the Photography Department at RIT in Rochester, N.Y.

The Bret Llewellyn Gallery is proud to announce "Moments of Movements", an animation reel from the Kuala Lumpur Experimental Film & Video Festival. The selection of works ranges from animated drawings, computer animation, hand-made films and experimental videos. It includes 15 experimental shorts from Australia, Hong Kong, Hungary, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Portugal, Thailand and UK.

This reel is curated by Siew-Wai Kok, director of the KLEX Festival. This is a special KLEX programme featuring films and animated works with the ideas of fragmented moments, movements and broken rhythms. Film, in its most traditional form, is a series of still images of captured moments. Human brains do not always function in a linear order. Memory, feelings and emotions occur in broken rhythms. New insights appear when these captured moments are arranged in a new order. Perhaps, it’s time to embrace the unavoidable chaos and find beauty in this fluctuated reality.

On View 1/26/15 - 2/12/15
Gallery Hours: 9am-4pm, Monday through Friday
