Ellen Stagg & Hiroshi Kumagai "Seeing Double"
Mighty Tanaka
This event has ended.
Seeing Double features the erotic artwork of Ellen Stagg & Hiroshi Kumagai. The two artists are each highly influenced by one others work as they both choose to represent different interpretations on the subject of erotic art. Ellen's playful yet seductive Lomokino videos and photography are the perfect match to Hiroshi's hand cut vinyl masterpieces. Together, these two artists will be displaying work that is both exciting and sexy, a great event to start the Spring!
