Trevon Latin “Trinket Eater”

Galerie Perrotin

This event has ended.

On our second floor, Houston-born, New York-based artist Trevon Latin will present his first exhibition in New York, titled Trinket Eater. Traversing many approaches — painting, costuming, performance, and installation — Latin will introduce a new series of his fabric-based mixed media sculptures and paintings. For Trinket Eater, Latin conjures a fantasy landscape that is inhabited by luminous beings. Latin’s world is endlessly green and undulating, echoing the open fields scattered around Southeast Texas. Here, Latin’s creatures are granted space and safety, guarded by the reflective gaze of sequins. For this exhibition, Latin has developed a series of avatars based on virtual reality, queer nightlife, mythology and the artist’s own visage as a transformative palette.
