Timothy Gaewsky + Reject Effect
February 2005 Graduate
Detroit, MI

whitneyRejectEffect is a Detroit, MI based interdisciplinary arts collaborative founded by artists Maria Prainito(Feb '06) and Timothy Gaewsky(Feb '06). We are interested in developing situational and interventionist methods of art production that invade, disrupt and bring into question socially accepted customs of behavior, etiquette and social interaction of persons within public spheres. We aspire to create work that explicitly presents thoughts that sit on the palette of one's tongue waiting to be spoken or swallowed.

"Life is very much about rule-breaking, about confrontation. Otherwise history would just stand still. Someone has to come along and break the rules and try, for whatever reason, to go about things in a different way. Even if it is a simple sense of adventure, a sense of exploration. You explore concepts and things that interest you, but are also exploring inside of yourself."

-Ed Paschke
