    Derek Vosten can't remember a time when he wasn't drawing, building, etc. He began tattooing in Colorado Springs in 1991. In his travels, he continued tattooing in Phoenix, Milwaukee, Wildwood NJ, Oklahoma City and finally in San Diego since 1998. In 2004, his amazing collection of industrial, entomological sculptures, The Swarm, exhibited in San Diego. It caught the attention of Professor Forest Rohwer (Rohwerlab) to utilize artwork to introduce ordinary folks to some of the most amazing aspects of microbiology.

    Diana De Augustine graduated from UCSD with a BA in Visual Arts, Honors Studio. She apprenticed under Bob Nguyen at Bad Influence Tattoo in Orange County and has been tattooing professionally since 2006. Tattooing plays a significant role in her fine art-making process. She sees the industry as an evolving sub-culture with its own hierarchy and elitists. She recognizes gender role issues and demographically sensitive responses to the tattooed lifestyle. She encourages this expression through body modification. Her paintings involve a process that creates an object from an abstract origin. The figurative, intrinsic qualities of the abstraction are made literal through extrinsic representation.
