About The Studio
Point.B Studio is an art gallery and Internet design studio located in the town of Port Orford, a picturesque fishing village and artist community on the southern Oregon coast. Celebrating its ~20th year, the gallery highlights artists who incorporate some aspect of the Internet in their work, and explores where art, traditional design and new media intersect through onsite and online exhibits. 🎨 ❤ 💭

About The Gallery
Point.B Studio has had many evocative exhibits and memorable shows over its past 20+ years, many entering into the realm of set design with large scale interactive installations and a blackbox theater in 2018. This design was for a special screening of films with the Center of Visual Music featuring work by Oskar Fishinger and Mary Ellen Bute which were required to be shown in complete darkness. The large street-level exhibit space lends itself well to the theater experience and is also outfitted with Internet controllable LED bulbs and lightboxes. Artist Darren Evans built a handcrafted elevated stage in 2021 for intimate music and art events adding to the gallery's character.

About The Garden
The Point.B Studio Garden, planned, planted and tended by the studio peeps, is a place of creativity, contemplation and study. It is an ecosystem, home to a wide variety of critters, flora, and a self-sustaining greens + vegetable garden. More features are planned for the garden and we are documenting the species with the help of our resident botanist.
