Inferno Gallery presents "No More Mail Please," a collaborative body of work by Rachel Wilkins and Dana Suleymanova, that probes the tension between the digital image and the printed image by utilizing both in multimedia collages. The work embeds obsolete technologies such as iPods, old iPhones, and digital picture frames within drawings created out of cheap materials such as cardboard, paper, and fabric.

By undermining the familiar presentation of digital imagery in a clean, rectangular format, the artists question the sensual, sexy and often feminine portrayal of media devices. The exhibition reconsiders the authority of the digital and proposes playful alternatives to thinking about the valuable and the valueless.

Free food, beverages, and wine will be provided at the opening reception. Music will be provided by KTRU DJ Laura Richardson. Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display until January 2019.
