Shorty Greene: Tender Passage

Tender Passage is Shorty Greene’s second solo exhibition at Eye Lounge opens Feb 17th. In this self-curated exhibition, the artist shares a collection of mixed-media collages. Using the sun as a camera proxy to assist in their creative practice. The works bear a dynamic blue hue which is a distinctive feature of a Cyanotype. Greene stated it was important to encapsulate the personification of time. These brilliant blue elements are found throughout Greene’s collages.


Shorty Greene is a Phoenix artist whose photographic, mixed-media and printmaking works often investigates identity and intimacy narrated through the refraction of family albums and text.
