An old art friend of mine from Paris once said, “It’s was smart of you to have thought of The New Art Project. It’s always art, it’s always new, and it’s always a project.” One

reason why I’ve chosen to head this section with an infinity symbol is because of its endlessness and limitlessness. Art is limitless. And Section 8 is therefore dedicated to

introducing artists to curious art lovers, and offering endless opportunities for interaction with each other, the art community, and beyond.

Al Miller

Al Miller has concentrated on transforming the non-material into the material, utilizing sacred geometry and numerology, sculptural and architectural form, text, and cross-continental exchange. He draws on African and African-American artistic heritage, such as beading and quilting. Yet, his use of new technologies, as in much Afrofuturism, traverses the so-called digital divide, which associates blackness with technological disadvantage. Along with many Afrofuturist thinkers, he is conscious of a long line of “Blacks in Science,” black innovators, and he experiments with sound, kinetic energy, solar power, 3D animation, and holography.

Rafael Vargas-Suarez

Rafael Vargas-Suarez (born 1972), more commonly known as Vargas-Suarez Universal, is a contemporary artist living and working in Brooklyn, New York. Born in Mexico City, Vargas-Suarez was raised in the Houston suburb of Clear Lake City, adjacent to the Johnson Space Center. From 1991 to 1996 he studied astronomy and art history at the University of Texas at Austin[citation needed] and moved to New York City in 1997.

He is primarily known for large-scale wall drawings, paintings, drawings, and photographs that draw inspiration from architecture, astronomy, biology, and medicine.[2][3]

His work has been or is currently featured in numerous exhibits, such as the Hudson River Museum in Yonkers, New York, the Jersey City Museum in Jersey City, New Jersey, the Thomas Erben Gallery in New York City, the Galeria Ramis Barquet in Monterrey, Mexico, and the Galeria Carlos Irizarry in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
