Blinn and Lambert is the collaborative name of Nicholas Steindorf and Kyle Williams. The two Brooklyn-based artists, who met in the Yale MFA painting program, began working together in 2016 to expand their practice in optical media, special effects, video and animation.  

Together, they have exhibited at Microscope Gallery in Brooklyn, NY; American Academy of Arts and Letters in New York, NY; ArtSpace in New Haven, CT; and PIX Film in Toronto. They have been awarded residencies at the LIFT Film Studio Immersion Program in Toronto and at the Institute for Electronic Arts at Alfred University, Alfred, NY.
