<span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif; color:black">Kei Ito is a visual artist working primarily with experimental photography and installation art who is currently teaching at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in NYC. Ito received his
MFA from Maryland Institute College of Art in 2016. Ito’s work addresses issues of deep intergenerational loss and connections as he explores the materiality and experimental processes of photography, visualizing the invisible: radiation, memory and life/death.</span></p>
<p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-variant-caps:normal; orphans:auto; text-align:start; widows:auto; line-height:1.5rem; word-spacing:0px">
<span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif; color:black">Ito’s work, fundamentally rooted in the trauma and legacy passed down from his late grandfather - a survivor of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, meditates on the complexity of his identity and
heritage through examining the past and current threats of nuclear disaster and his present status as an US-immigrant. Many of Ito’s artworks transformed both art and non-art spaces into temporal monuments that became platforms for the audience to explore
social issues and the memorials dedicated to the losses suffered from the consequences of those issues.</span></p>

<span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif; color:black">Andrew Paul Keiper is an artist and educator based in Baltimore, Maryland where he teaches at the Maryland Institute College of Art in the Animation and Film & Video programs. Working in sound,
image and installation, Andrew's work dances across the boundaries of sound art, experimental music and sound design. </span></p>

<span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif; color:black">Field recordings, drones, drumming and sound designed evocations of places remote in time and place commingle in Keiper’s work, inviting the audience to listen in ways they may not be accustomed
to listening. Much of Andrew's work contemplates the legacy of his grandfather's role in the creation of the atomic bomb, and the ramifications of atomic weaponry past and present. Andrew also maintains a practice as a sound designer for film, and as a musician
and audio engineer.</span></p>

Baltimore Sun and others. In 2016, they brought this work, along with others to the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where they exhibited their first large-scale art museum exhibition, Archives Aflame.</span></p>
