Gina Alexandra Denton is a visual artist based in Baltimore, MD. Her sculptural practice is rooted in intuitive play, and her material index spans several craft based media, including fiber and ceramics. Viewing art making as a form of intuitive cosmology, Gina creates work that explores the concept of space, both internal and external, micro and Marco. Her interactive, modular, "playable" sculptures aim to cast the viewer in the role of the mystical child who, upon encountering foreign objects, see only potential playthings, and through exploratory play, deepen their understanding of context and empathy.

During her residency at Elsewhere, Denton created Big Girl Wanna Play Too.

Antonio McAfee’s work addresses the complexity of representation. Through appropriating and manipulating portraits, he engages in prescribed views of individuals and rework images to provide an alternate - more layered image and concept of the people depicted. His photographs oscillate between formal considerations (modifying appearances and prints) and imaginary potential (establishing new back stories and roles) for the portraits.

During his residency at Elsewhere, McAfee created The Break in the Game.

Beau Vasseur is a new media artist living and working in Baltimore, MD. His work has been shown at Big Law Country Club in Brooklyn, NY, Vox Populi in Philadelphia, PA, Terrault Contemporary in Baltimore, MD, and the Borscht Film Festival in Miami, FL. His mediums include film and immersive installation. By harnessing the power of conspiracy documentaries, advertising, and architecture, his work attempts to shed light on the detrimental effects of unfeasible expectations set by first world ambitions. These explorations are inspired by real life immersive sets such as Las Vegas, Dubai, and Disney world, and scrutinize architecture as a means to convey progress, human achievement, and utopian aspirations.

During his residency at Elsewhere, Vasseur created Department No. 1.

Shan Wallace is an award-winning photographer, artist, and freedom fighter from East Baltimore. Inspired by the service of social change and the social power of art, and harsh realities rooted in racial and economic divides during her upbringing in poverty, SHAN uses the lens to document communities of the African diaspora. Her work conveys and reveals the social, cultural, and political narratives of black life serving as photographic documentation and archive of Blackness. Dedicated to demonstrating and promoting the value of archiving and photography, and increasing Black visibility, SHAN distributes her photographs internationally. Inspired by the legacy of photo albums, this ongoing project is a grassroots and accessible method of storytelling and archiving, articulating and legitimizing Black people’s experience. The goal is to provide subjects with physical copies of images of themselves to build or contribute to their own archive and challenging us to consciously or unconsciously enforce new ways of seeing, thinking, and being a part of the African Diaspora. SHAN has received recognition from the Baltimore Beat for Best Solo Show, Best Photographer from the City Paper, and awarded 2nd Place for Small Outlet Feature of “Losing Conner’s Mind” by Association of Health Care Journalists'. Her work has received widespread support from publications like the Washington Post, the Baltimore Sun, Essence, and the now-defunct Baltimore City Paper. SHAN has also exhibited work in museums internationally from the Reginald F. Lewis Museum to Mariano Arts Center, in Havana Cuba. More recently, she's working on confronting oppressive politics and histories of Black Americans through collages and installations.

During Wallace’s residency, she created THE BANSHEE UNDE[RAGE].
