About the Creators
Betsy Kidder
Betsy Kidder is a mixed media artist. She is one of four founding members of the “Twisting Road Artists” a New England based group of mixed media artists.
Making collages has captivated Betsy for over 50 years. She enjoys the challenge of exploring and bringing back to life discarded and forsaken materials and old photographs. Betsy then layers and juxtaposes them on a myriad of different surfaces. Her artwork is infused with multiple textures, bold colors, and shifting shapes.
Betsy’s overall intention is to create dynamic and contemplative compositions for the viewer to explore. Hidden within is a story to be told.
Eliot Mason
Eliot Mason is a photographer from Rutland, Vermont. He is currently in his senior year at Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, Massachusetts. His BFA capstone project explores the evolving relationship between technology, convenience, and self-questioning how contemporary life shapes personal identity and experience. Through atmospheric landscapes and portraiture, his work blends classic visual aesthetics with modern themes. He often shoots on film, including expired stock and traditional black and white, to emphasize texture and color to evoke nostalgia and a sense of time passed. This work is balanced with the use of digital photography for his commercial-oriented work. While his ideas and techniques continue to grow and shift as a student, one thing remains constant: his deep love for photography.
