Steele builds sculptures and installations in his studio and projects digital landscapes onto their surfaces, giving the images’ physicality in a complex space. Painting from photographs of these scenes, he attempts to capture the otherworldly appearance of these landscapes while drawing attention to their illusoriness. Steele received his MFA in 2008 from the Maryland Institute College of Art and has previously shown work in Baltimore and St. Louis. His solo show at {Poem 88}, “From This, A Mountain,” will be on view from April 26 to May 24.
