Medium Cool features photographs by Joy Episalla and paintings by Michael Antkowiak. Episalla depicts the quiet, transitional spaces of hotel rooms, as reflected in the blank screens of powered-down television sets. The unmade beds and coffee cups on nightstands speak to the intimate, temporary moments left behind. Antkowiak also explores private spaces of unspoken potential. His paintings find a solitary young woman in her bedroom, frozen in various simple activities. The muted reds and blues give a feeling of calm without eliminating the possibility that something interesting might happen within the voyeuristic frame.
