Unfortunately you'll have to travel up to Toronto, Canada to catch the latest work by Miami's favorite artistic rainbow warrior and New Times MasterMind winner Jen Stark. Her two person show, "Double Rainbow Rainbow," with the equally vibrant Maya Hayuk will bring some color to the great white north tonight when it debuts at the Show & Tell gallery. Fortunately one of the key pieces -- a video with music provided by sonic trickster Dan Deacon -- has made an early appearance. Get ready to go on a hallucinogenic ride of colorful paper and watch for yourself.

"Believer" by Jen Stark / Music by Dan Deacon from Jen Stark on Vimeo.

Known for her intricate and mind bending sculptures made out of colored paper, Stark has slowly been working her way into the world of video. Her

Vimeo page features a handful of other animations, but this is by far her longest work. 

After Coral Morphologic snagged Animal Collective's Geologist to score their short for the Borscht Film Festival, it seems Miami creatives are getting noticed by some of indie music's biggest names. 

Though a Stark-Deacon collabo only seems right. The dude loves his colors, as you can see from his Crystal Cat video.
