2024 exhibition- SOUVENIR- Farrington Smith Gallery, New Orleans
This exhibition was an exploded sketchbook - replicas of sketches, notes, experiments- a literal re-presentation of creative attempts to summon A VIBE that feels like a place- that place being New Orleans. The vibe is one of theater- illusory, faux ghostly sensuality. Darkly celebratory, like catching a funeral parade by chance. Elegant and feral- bedazzled, melancholy. In the gallery, elements repeat, echo one another, haunting one another, obsessing over themselves and their subject.
