In ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, Marc Chicoine and Eli Portman explore how internal states and external environments shape perception and presence. Portman looks outward at the urban world, while Chicoine turns inward to the body and movement. Though their visual languages differ, both artists consider how individuals navigate larger systems, making the invisible tangible through their artmaking.
