In the English dictionary, nexus is a connection or link that associates two or more people or things. In "Nexus," there are three groups of intersecting artists who work with similar ideas and themes, but produce varied results.
Working from photographs often taken from late night prowls that transverse the city, Los Angeles-native Tsuno tackles and depicts with paint on panel the contrapuntal elements and phenomena that occur within the urban sprawl
