Exhibition Statement
This exhibition highlights the collaborative spirit and creative legacy of Flash Flood Print Studios through a showcase of prints from their Artist Print Series, selected works by participating artists, and ephemera from the studio. Founded as an artist-led, community-driven print shop, Flash Flood supported clients of all sizes while nurturing bold, high-quality projects. The Artist Print Series was created in 2019 with the aim to make screen printing accessible– offering artists a no-cost method to produce editions, celebrating the versatility of the medium, and providing affordable entry points for new collectors. With the studio’s recent closure in March, this exhibition serves both as a tribute to the APS and a retrospective of the collaborations that shaped Flash Flood over its 13 year run.

Shane Darwent is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice considers the commercial vernacular that lines American roadways to inform experimental photographic works, large-scale sculpture, and site-responsive installations.

Addoley Dzegede is a Ghanaian-American artist based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her primary focus is questioning commonly held ideas about authenticity and belonging. She creates textile works in vibrant colors using screen printing, dyeing, and batik processes. She has primarily worked with textiles as a means of bridging seemingly distinct cultural traditions and practices. She has found that a deeper look into textile histories reveals intertwined histories involving trade, mimicry, exploitation, and transitions from handmade processes to industrialized ones. For example, recent works use the language of wax print fabrics, originating in 19th-century attempts by Dutch manufacturers to imitate and mass-produce handmade Indonesian batiks. Inspired by color, cloth, and pattern as a means for conveying nuanced messages, Addoley examines the historical connections and entanglements lurking behind these and other seemingly innocuous decorative artifacts that have shaped our contemporary world.

Casey R. Klein Garza-Ortiz is an interdisciplinary artist based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Rooted in abstraction but not confined by it, her work is raw, immersive, and deeply personal. Born from a lifelong negotiation with inner chaos, grief, and the search for a sense of belonging. After six pivotal years in Los Angeles, she returned home to confront memory, place, and the quiet unraveling of the self.
Her process, tactile, intuitive, and often physically intense, is a form of therapy, ritual, and resistance. Drawing from painting, collage, and material experimentation, she transforms rupture into rhythm, layering paper, pigment, and remnants of past works into emotionally charged compositions.
For Casey, making art is a form of survival. It's how she navigates the weight of identity, queerness, mental illness, and the spaces in between. Her practice creates room for the unspeakable, an offering to those who live with feelings too big for words.

JP Morrison Lans’ art practice is rooted in diaristic mythology that chronicles the emotional body—intimacy, desire, transformation and identity through a combination of figurative realism and abstraction. Areas of focus include her motherhood, womanhood and the threshold between anatomy and soul. Through layers of color pencil she creates translucent skin. The addition of underpainting and encaustic then allow her to massage and sculpt symbolic forms into bas-relief around her drawing, creating membranes and animistic objects which serve as expressions of the subject's emotional escapades.
Morrison Lans earned her BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute in 2007 and has exhibited widely, currently holding gallery representation in San Francisco, Santa Fe, Gold Coast Australia and Tulsa. Her work is held in the public collections of NBC Bank (Oklahoma) and Bundaberg Regional Gallery (Australia) and she has created immersive installations for AHHA Tulsa, Living Arts, and OVAC.
