Oliver was born Decatur, GA and lived there until June of 2009. She has since moved to Cleveland, Ohio. Art has always been a huge part in Oliver’s life with influences such as Dr. Seuss, Shel Silverstein, Jim
Henson, Egon Schiele, and her grandmother Marla Holcomb. Today, she works in illustration, painting, printmaking, bookbinding, and creating puppets. Lucha Rodriguez was born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela. She earned her BFA in Graphic Design from The Art Institute of Atlanta in 2006. She is currently a MFA candidate in Printmaking at The Savannah College of Art and Design Atlanta. Rodriguez’s print work has been shown in Mexico, India, France and the United States. She has produced various “pink projects” ranging from etchings, monoprints, serigraphies, to immersive surreal environments. Rodriguez develops series of organ inspired “Creaturettes” which expand into her own extravagant symbolism related to the body as an internal space.
