“Decadent Illusions” Exhibition
A.I.R. Gallery
This event has ended.
Decadent Illusions is an exhibition of collages and drawings from three Michigan-based artists, d’Ann de Simone, Kristen Franyutti and Elyse Gambino. The works reflect the deceptively lush and placid surface of contemporary consumer culture, while showing that just below the surface lies an abyss of turmoil and decay.
Vibrant color and a hint of chaos: the tightly packed compositions quickly engender a sense of unease and confusion on the surface that hopes to reflect the corruption and degradation of humankind that too often seems overlooked. By invoking this experience of anxiety and uncertainty, the works invite the viewer to appraise the morality their personal experience of the art which confronts them, and of the wider world itself. The exhibition creates an illusion of hectic beauty as it deals with the underbelly of contemporary experience.
