The Nocturnal Emissions of Brad Benischek

Brad Benischek’s Nocturnal Emissions is inspired by memories of playing the post apocalyptic role-playing game Gamma World as a teenager.  The show’s futuristic narrative moves beyond the game and its rules and into a strange unstable universe. Here, childhood, adolescent and adult fears and desires are superimposed on each other as a family navigates a chaotic nocturnal landscape full of dangerous encounters and distant unknown goals.

Brad Benischek is a visual artist, educator and scenic painter. His work has appeared in numerous publications, on t-shirts, telephone poles and art spaces.  He received his BFA from Parsons School of Design and MFA from Savannah College of Art and Design.
