Born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1962, Tom Haney has always been fascinated by mechanical movement. His fascination would manifest itself often - he regularly took apart household items, much to his parents' disapproval. He took art classes in high school and attended college studying Industrial Design. Before becoming a full-time artist in 2000, his professional work consisted of making props, models and miniatures for television commercials, still photographers, and motion pictures. With the inclusion of collected found objects, another connection is made, albeit to a more recent past. I search out and collect, as an archivist or archeologist, discarded, obsolete artifacts and breathe new life into them as they are remodeled into devices that help tell my stories. Stories that often illustrate man's perseverance to overcome life's obstacles, often with open-ended narratives that are completed by the viewer." He's made kinetic figurative work since 1994, and began working as a full-time artist in 2000. While he has shown in galleries and art shows from coast to coast, currently he works as an independent artist, and survives on his commission work. Haney's artworks can be found in collections all over the US, in the UK, and Europe.

This turntable is custom built with additions to be the most iconic instrument with a Technics headshell, Stanton 500 stylus (in gold), Technics mat and the 45 adaptor.

Arts Museum AZ; Hudgens Center for the Arts; Artfields SC; Abernathy Arts Center, Atlanta. Collections include: City of Atlanta; Atlanta Office of the Mayor; DuPont Beijing; Broadway Crowne Plaza NYC; and numerous private collections including Darla Moore and Don Roman. My Art is a visual document of the emotional, social and environmental energies I encounter in that moment of creating. I express myself in 2D and 3D works. The foundation of my work is an exploration of the nature around me; and the energies it emanates. I want to encourage others to see something; investigate something; be curious about something; in order to make visual discoveries and open doors to spiritual ones. It advocates for taking a good hard look and consider realities beyond your own truth; to the participation in something bigger, more universal. My Breathe collection became a way to transform my fears, angers, and uncertainties into visually spirited collection of work. It is a response to our suffocating oceans and the continual dump of waste, it speaks to the time of Covid and "I Can't Breathe". The worlds social, environmental and political crises crashed together in that word, "Breathe"

Gabi Madrid is a multi-disciplinary artist, intuitive, and energy healer based in Atlanta, GA. Their approach to art has always been based around the medium or concept that "calls" to them. The mediums range from new media installation, found objects, paper art, collage, and reclaimed materials such as wood and metal. With Muscogee Creek heritage but being raised outside of the tribe and in the South created a cultural diaspora which has led a searching for connection to tradition and spirituality. This has guided the artist on an existential journey to explore healing of generational patterning, societal roles, and the collective unconscious. An introspective search into their own past and trauma led to the emergence of various series. Madrid graduated in 2019 from The Savannah College of Art & Design with their BFA. Working as a fine artist granted them experience in writing grants/proposals, woodworking, metal fabrication, and public art installation. Their work has been included in a group shows at the Zuckerman Museum of Art - Fine Arts Gallery and exhibited at the Palazzo Ca' Zanardi in Venice, Italy. Their work is also publicly on display on Freedom Park Trail and on the BeltLine in Atlanta, GA.

Visual artist Megan Mosholder reacts to the social-political landscape through site-responsive installations. Her three-dimensional drawings, often enhanced by light, emphasize obscured elements within recognizable places correlating symbolism with lived experience. A graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design with an MFA in painting, Megan boasts numerous awards from institutions such as the Foundation for Contemporary Arts and the Hambidge Center for Creative Arts and Sciences. She is commissioned by leading corporations and included in public art programs, museum exhibitions, and art fairs. Interest in her installations led to international interest in her work, evidenced by her inclusion within the European Cultural Centre's 2022 Personal Structures exhibition presented during the Venice Biennale and a public art space in Sydney, Australia (2017). These works speak to the power of site-specific work to make a lasting impression upon the viewer. Her large-scale installations also express her tenacity. Following a September 2018 car accident where the gas tank ruptured and ignited, trapping her inside, she endured burns to over sixty percent of her body. While the event left indelible marks, it also provided new heights for her to reach. Megan continues to create installations that relay her devotion to her work and the communities she engages. Currently, she resides in Atlanta, GA, where she is a consultant to RangeWater's Artist-in-Residence (AIR) Program.
