"Club 27 : "Lit"
A solo showing at Pyramid Studios: 27 Club: "Lit." Miami, Florida
(May 18 - July 18, 2012)
Multimedia art honors pop culture icons Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse and others who passed at age 27. Unique, mixed media light exhibition creates a mood of mystery and intrigue.
Since the early 90s, popular culture has increasingly mused about the "The 27 Club" (a title given to the group of musicians whose lives were interrupted at the age of 27). Whether we believe in coincidence, numerology or nonsense, an unsolvable mystery seems to bind the lives and deaths of these enigmatic figures. Mariah Fox's latest exhibition pays tribute – to Hendrix, Joplin, Basquiat, and others – exploring and exposing moody glimpses of the mythic personas who rest eternally in "Club 27." Visitors of 27 Club: "Lit" can expect to see unusual portraiture of legends from pop culture. The large and small mixed media sculptures merge Mariah Fox's technical background and fascination with history, culture, dreams, light and shadow. |
