January 9th Show &Tell Gallery "Word Up?" Group Show Feat. PaperMonster

-------------------------------------------------------
"Word Up?" Show & Tell Gallery's Group Show featuring artists PaperMonster, Ghost, Dixon, Omen, Skam, and Case opens Friday Jan 9th in collaboration with LE Gallery. The group show starts off 2009 in a great way showcasing new works from each artist. PaperMonster's new work has grown larger with bolder textures and detail. Each piece explores the harmony between chaos and beauty with titles such as "True Identity" "The Beast Within" and "If He Only Knew" that dive into the secrets and hidden mysteries within women. Negative space and shadows heighten the degree of the unknown. Each stencil art piece allows the audience to interact and actively digest the stories contained in each painting making for a powerful visual experience.
You can catch images and additional information on the group show below::
