NYAB Event - "The Mothership Has Landed" Exhibition

This event has ended.

Media: Painting, Photography, Sculpture, Video installation, Performance Art

The title of the show borrows from the infamous George Clinton + Funkadelic and their decades-long experimental movement combining music, fashion, illustration and performance. Their phrase, "The Mothership Has Landed" can roughly translate to "The shit is about to hit the fan!" and illustrates the collective nature of the group's overall expressive and raw quality.

A similar expressive and raw quality can be seen in this group of artists. Their works are cultural hybrids borrowing from the familiar and inspired by their investigation of media transformed through personal experience, resulting in a cosmic array of images, objects and performance. "Here's a chance to dance our way out of our constrictions…with the groove our only guide, we shall all be moved."
