"WILLFUL WILES" New Work by Kelly McKernan & Marcy Starz
JULY 9TH - 30TH Not unlike a predator tracking prey merely for recreation, “Willful Wiles” exposes the animalistic impulses and desires that humans instinctively engage and subsequently indulge in. Choosing the contemporary female figure, Kelly McKernan and Marcy Starz explore the means by which their subjects entice and manipulate their unwitting victims, whether for the thrill of the chase or the affirmation of their adroit sexuality. The wo...rk draws correlations between the animalistic tendencies we continually exhibit as a civilized species and our own misguided self-perception - are we as composed and calculated as we'd like to think, or do we act on impulse more than we'd like to admit?

Review of "Tragedie" from Burnaway |
Tragédie: Myths and American Dreams Gone Wrong at Beep Beep 
Sanithna Phansavanh, Towers of the Magic Kingdom, Pillars of Babylon, 2011, acrylic and graphite, 18 x 30 inches. Image courtesy Beep Beep Gallery. Life is made of more tragedies than comedies due to circumstance, point of view, or environment. Children are often fed stories to help them learn lessons that parents hope they never have to use when they grow up. Some of these are fairy tales and fables, but they also include true stories of friends that have found themselves up Shit’s Creek without a paddle. READ THE REST OF THE ARTICLE HERE.
