Brian McNearney and Edra Soto: Forever Vegetal
@ Roots & Culture
1034 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
Opening Friday, December 11th, from 6PM - 9PM
On view through Saturday, January 16th
New sculptures and paintings by Brian McNearney begin to try to empathize with and understand the plant’s sense of humor, while simultaneously feeling seriously sorry for them, ultimately left terrified at their prevalence.
New sculptures and paintings by Edra Soto explore how different forms represent ideas of Heaven and Hell. Speculations of what awaits us after passing, rebirth, transformation, world peace, communions, hope, love, and ideas of mental and spiritual darkness are all referenced through a lens of a Roman Catholic upbringing.
