Timothy Stanley joins Long Road Projects at Untitled Art Fair Miami 2022–we are excited to present Tim as one of our featured artist and showcase his newest pieces in booth C28.
About the artist :
“Timothy Stanley (b. 1984) is a multidisciplinary artist from New York, NY. He graduated with a B.A. in English Literature and Creative Writing from Columbia University. Stanley uses a combination of mediums including sculpture, prose fiction and video game development in order to explore the boundaries of traditional literary narrative, with the aim of uncovering new techniques in storytelling. Stanley is the author of the art historical novel Măiastra: A History of Romanian Sculpture in Twenty-Four Parts. Volume one of Măiastra was recently acquired by the Museum of Modern Art in New York as part of its permanent collection.
For the last ten years, the focus of Stanley's practice has been the sculpture project Ursula, an ongoing series of sculptural studies for a single, theoretical work. Objects and sketches from the Ursula series have been exhibited in the US and in Europe. The first full iteration of Ursula will open at the Crisp-Ellert Art Museum in St. Augustine, Florida in January 2023. Stanley's newest project, entitled Kathleen's Game, is a development log for a video game about distinctive systems of digital time keeping. Kathleen's Game is also a site-specific installation: a makeshift reading room, cafe and free bookstore inhabiting the gallery space in which it is exhibited. Stanley lives and works in Bucharest, Romania.”

Tony Rodrigues joins Long Road Projects at Untitled Art Fair Miami 2022! We are thrilled to have Tony returning for a second year, showcasing his new pieces in booth C28.
About the artist :
"Tony Rodrigues’ work mostly involves painting, but also includes drawing, printmaking, photography, collage and multimedia combinations. Tony has woven a rich tapestry of appropriated imagery culled from the chronicles of the 20th century such as vintage textbooks, postcards and snapshots. He repurposes and reshapes these images into scenarios and vignettes that subtly convey feelings ranging from quiet levity to somber introspection. There is often an open-ended quality in the work that offers the viewer some mystery to contemplate. While Rodrigues’ style has evolved over the years, there is a sentiment and awareness throughout his work that remains his own and is easily recognizable to those that are familiar with his art. His confident and adroit use of materials as well as his selection and juxtaposition of imagery lends a timeless quality to his work. Rodrigues’ recent exhibitions include Frail History & Future Regrets (When the Past Was What It Used To Be) a solo exhibition at University of North Florida Gallery and 1:1, a group exhibition, at The Front, New Orleans, Louisiana and has forthcoming exhibitions at The Baker Museum – Artis, Naples in Naples, Florida and Alabama Contemporary in Mobile, Alabama.
Rodrigues is also a teaching artist with Cathedral Arts Project–a Jacksonville-based non-profit arts organization–where he has earned awards from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to fund his work at the John E. Goodman Pretrial Detention Facility for his work with incarcerated youths being tried as adults. In 2017 this work culminated in an institutionally supported visual art exhibition titled “County Missives – Expressive Works by Incarcerated Juveniles Adjudicated as Adults.” "

Dustin Harewood joins Long Road Projects at Untitled Art Fair Miami 2022! We are thrilled to have Dustin returning for a second year, showcasing his new pieces in booth C28.
About the artist :
"Harewood’s art practice over the last decade has explored themes of multiculturalism and the consequences of colonialism and industrialization. Harewood draws inspiration from his familial lineage and the 21st century world of desire for immediacy in all aspects of life and seeks to find nuance within vanishing moments in order to capture a narrative between histories.
While beautifully fascinating and simultaneously destructive, our contemporary culture is one that is wasteful yet transformative. A throw away culture which takes garbage and up-cycles it into valuable objects which transcend time, religion, fine art and commerce. Harewood’s material explorations do just that, often using discarded packages, mass produced manufactured single use plastics and recycled fibers, Harewood embellishes, collages, adorns and recontextualized these objects into substantive works of art. Works that consider what makes beauty and how to transform the past, present and future through complicated associations in history and narrative."
