"Unoriginal Genius" curated by Ross Karlan – The exhibition is an exploration of visual poetry and poetics, inspired by Marjorie Perloff’s 2010 book of the same name. Perloff posits that poetry in our current age blurs the line between pure creation and curation of information, a tension these artists explore through tackling the concept of originality and the crisis of our digital world and hyper- information. In great company with: Javier Martin, Gabriel Pessoto, André Azevedo

COPE NYC x Michela Martello Michela Martello’s Third Eye Residency Project at COPE NYC proposed a collaborative framework, which involved 7 artists. The project is based on research that drawing blindfolded can stimulate a sphere of our senses that often remain asleep, these reactivated spheres ignite a series of electrical micro magnetisms in our body that act on endorphins, on the thalamus, and on the third eye, making us joyful and more present in the moment. Michela asked Kopenhaver to work in words for her piece, and Kopenhaver documented the collaboration with 35mm film.

“Striking directly at the heart of darkness within our governmental power structure and the elite class and high society that surrounds it, Katelyn has created what can only be described as a personal handheld gallery. It is a tour de force of image and textual experience bearing all the hallmarks of her gritty style. It will punch you in the face and in the gut, pull on some heartstrings, and also make you feel sort of like a detective investigating a deep web of lies and corruption - because that's exactly what it took for Katelyn to compile this collection, drawing on so much more than her own personal feelings and experience. I know, because I watched her do it!”
-Daniel de la Fé, Founder of Phoenix Pyre Publishing

Article 22 “This is not a bracelet. It is a piece of history - Vietnam War shrapnel and scrap are up-cycled into peacebomb jewelry by traditional artisans in Laos. Each bracelet sold helps Mines Advisory Group clear some of the 80 million unexploded bombs from their land. The brand has been recognized as pioneering not only the transformation of weapons into jewelry but also the tangible value of fashion that looks and does good by customers in over 40 countries." - Article 22 75% of all sales go directly to the artist and 25% comes back into feed the organization’s work.
NOT FOR SALE, is for anyone who has ever felt commodified. It’s for all the individuals affected directly or indirectly by traumas, it’s for the people who want to express boundaries, ditch the guidelines, speak up, challenge power, it’s for the ones who reject the pretty pictures and build their own path.
You’re a human, and you aren’t for sale.
