British-born Jamie Salmon takes it to the next level. His work plays with scale -- crafting eerily real, too-large 3D self-portraits and figures to create a sense of "heightened reality." The Vancouver-based artist began his career as a commercial artist, making hyper-real bodies for the movie effects industry, and using silicone rubber, resin, fabric and hair.

ART INSTALLATION BY RICH HARRINGTON ON DISPLAY THROUGH JUNE 25 →
Artist Rich Harrington with works Daddy and Butch from the Here We Are Series
“This is the way we play and learn,” an art exhibition by SUNY Broome Adjunct Instructor Rich Harrington, continues through June 25 at the Anthony Brunelli Fine Arts Gallery, 186 State Street, Binghamton, with an opening reception on June 3.
The artwork addresses issues of bullying, cultural roles defined by toys, games and textbooks, and the effect these have on growing into adulthood. Using culturally charged images, familiar materials, and a sense of humor, the work entices then provokes the viewer to look closer for deeper meaning.
Much of the work is comprised of multiple pieces referencing the repetition and reiteration of elementary school learning, as well as the hypnotic sprawling sameness of the suburban development in which the artist was raised.

SUNY Broome Adjunct Instructor Rich Harrington is the recipient of a New York State Council on the Arts Finishing Fund grant for his project, “Direct Instruction.” Finishing Funds grants support artists in the completion/post-production of film, video, sound, new media and Web-based work.
Nick Rubenstein, Co-Founder/Creative Director of the LUMA Projection Arts Festival, worked with Harrington to create a piece that incorporates video projected images on a wall of 477 “Language Master” speech therapy cards used in elementary schools of the 1960s. Accompanying the video piece is a 42-minute audio track created from the included cards.
The piece provokes questions of language, meaning, repetition, gender roles and place in the context of mid-century suburban middle-class American culture.
