#LifeLately
An Exhibition by Laura Atria
Building on Atria’s passion for storytelling through visual art, her newest series #LifeLately delves into voyeurism and the depiction of human vulnerability while also reflecting on the community’s story & history. Atria used tagged images on social media to create the painted imagery on exhibit. This community engagement project is invited Broward County residents and visitors to take and post photos of their own voyeuristic experiences around town. It is her hope for this series to capture the day-to-day beauty of life through your eyes and experiences and to look at the world with new eyes. Encouraging everyone to view daily living experiences with romance and chance. Don’t forget to #LifeLatey and tag @Laura_Atria_Art to be part of the project!

Juicy curveballs
A Record by tiny.blips
juicy curveballs: beat tape is an album of raw, gritty, soul-filled beats and compositions by producer and multi-instrumentalist tiny.blips. 18 fun size tracks are woven together in an abstract, yet playful depiction of existence through heavy grooves, melodies and found sounds.
Fully performed, written, recorded and produced by tiny.blips, he plays all real instruments (vocals, bass, drums, guitar, keyboards, percussion, trumpet etc) and manipulates them in search of a dreamy, earthy, crunched out, woozy-funk aesthetic.
