Poison Play

Poison Play
Curated by Beth Giacummo
April 10 - June 5
Artist Reception April 24, 1:00-4:00 PM

What happens when the modern conveniences we take for granted have toxic side effects? It's easy to enjoy the technological innovations and present-day comforts of life in what seems to be in harmony with our surroundings. However, as these luxuries of consumerism overtake the once abundant flora and fauna of our environment, they simultaneously pave a path to a dystopian future, and we are forced to confront our own toxic trails. Poison Play looks to themes of tainted ecosystems and inspires works born from destruction. The artists featured in this exhibit have investigated, explored, and translated our carbon footprint and abuse of natural resources into visual depictions of poisonous play.
