This event has ended.

Selenas Mountain presents The Jester Plays Dead, featuring works by Dan Rizzo-Orr, Edward Salas, and Seneca Weintraut. This exhibition pulls together three artists whose practices weave through shape, figurative abstraction, and gallows humour. These distinct voices explore an amalgam of archetypes through visual story-telling and material compositions. The host of characters in this work blend into an overarching motif of the jester and the idea of the painting as a riddle. Rehearsed as a backwards journey, the mental gymnastics of the comedic alchemist transforms tragedy into entertainment and sadness into laughter.
