I was surfing around the net and found a really dope art exhibit by AIKO which is currently showing at the Joshua Linear Gallery in NY. A brief description of they work:
“The show is primarily comprised of several ambitious large scale mixed media works on canvas that serve as metaphorical self portraits for the artist, which contemplate gender, cultural, and artistic identity. In My Fortune Cookie Says the Secret to Success is to Go Your Own Way, a voluptuous woman strips along the edge of a boat, spray can in hand, revealing herself to the New York skyline. The watchful eye of the city, disguised here as a playful panda, stands close by, while law enforcement reward posters collage the background.”
I love it when artists just GO BIG. I get sort of jealous, but then again jealousy is envy. I was thinking of doing something like this, not at some big’ol art show exhibit, but just to dress up the empty walls in my house. I just haven’t had the time to get things started.
