In their  &#8220;Distill Life&#8221; works, the artists permanently mount translucent prints  and drawings directly on top of video screens, creating moving images on  paper. They incorporate technologies and aesthetics from traditional  printmaking &#8211; including woodblock, silk screen, etching, lithography,  photogravure etc &#8211; with the technologies and aesthetics of contemporary  digital, video and networked art, to explore images as multidimensional.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Meuninck-Ganger and Stern hack and tweak, shoot  and print, appropriate and remix, edit and draw. Their juxtaposition of  anachronistic and disparate methods, materials and content -print and  video, paper and electronics, real and virtual &#8211; enables novel  approaches to understanding each. The artists engage with subject matter  ranging from historical portraiture to current events, from hyperreal  landscapes to socially awkward moments. The works are surprising,  wistful, enchanting, and seriously playful.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"color: #800000; text-decoration: underline; font-weight: normal;\" href=\"..\/..\/\">http:\/\/nathanielstern.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #800000; text-decoration: underline; font-weight: normal;\" href=\"http:\/\/jessicameuninck.com\/\">http:\/\/jessicameuninck.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two in Wisconsin, and more!
