Photography duo, Jessica Haye and Clark Hsiao, met their first day of orientation at the Art Center College of Design. After graduation, they’ve worked with the likes of Spin, W, The New York Times Style Magazine, and Wired. Their work is also featured in American Photography 24 and the Communication Arts Photo Annual 2008.
Chris Scarborough’s work is simultaneously beautiful and grotesque. More than just bits of anthropomorphism and Japanese pop-culture, Chris bends reality with lovely graphite drawings of mushroom clouds and flexible, porcelain-skinned characters. His digitally altered photograph portraits of family and friends feature anime proportions (not surprising, he loves Akira) and explore similar themes of idealized cuteness and perfection.
Chris Scarborough is a Nashville native who received his BFA from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2000. His work has been featured in ArtPapers, The Red Clay Survery, New American Paintings, Texas National, and the Kentucky National among others.
Chris is currently in a group show at the Copro Nason Gallery (running until April 25, 2009). He also has an upcoming May solo show at the Curator’s Office in Washington D.C.

A few of my friends have told me that whenever I post about Watchmen, they got horrible flashbacks of Dr. Manhattan’s giant blue junk. Sorry, guys, this is too good to not post. Also, this is all about the character Rorschach, not Doc Manhattan.
