SUMMARY:CIRCLE⭕️COMPLEX — The Forgotten Dreams
DESCRIPTION:A LIVE Art & Music Collaboration by Nate Schmold & Josh Klassen \nJosh Klassen & Nate Schmold are lifelong creators whose work spans walls\, waves\, pixels\, and emotional wavelengths. Josh brings a grassroots spirit—cutting his teeth on boxcars and murals\, community projects and café shows—balancing fine art and poetry with hip-hop and hands-on hustle. Nate channels his energy through illustration\, painting\, music\, video games\, and live theatre\, often orbiting themes of absurdity\, inner states\, and the weirdness of being alive. \nJoined by a mutual love and respect for the same artforms\, Josh and Nate have begun to create work in unison. Through their music project CIRCLE⭕️COMPLEX\, they bend soundwaves through live improvisation into rhythmic\, hyperdimensional transmissions; and their collaborative mural paintings combine organically mutating shapes with a crisp cartoon-pop street art style. \nTogether\, their individual practices reflect a shared belief in art as a tool for abstract expression\, community connection\, and personal transformation—whether it’s spray paint on a door or a glitchy naked spaceman in a digital dream. \n— \nFor their show “The Forgotten Dreams”\, Nate & Josh bare their souls in an evening of live art-making and sound. The walls are lined with fragments from each artist’s past—paintings\, drawings\, and moments that spiral toward a shared portal-like center: a large blank canvas\, waiting to be activated. \nAs the night begins\, they take turns—one painting live\, the other performing a solo music set—trading roles and building something layered\, strange\, and alive. By the end\, the canvas becomes a shared artifact: a new piece grown from both of their histories. \nTo close the night\, they join forces as CIRCLE⭕️COMPLEX\, performing a final live music set to pull it all together. It’s a night of color\, rhythm\, improvisation\, and deep creative trust. Hypnotic\, a little chaotic\, and very human.
