Event-Preview: Amanda Spayd For The Decadence of Decay @ Rivet (March 6)
From bottled cures to ornate carved resting pedestal-perches, from rusty-locks, to pretty red ribbons tied with a bow, artist Amanda Louise Spayd surprises with prop-details and accessories along with her hauntingly attractive doll-creations, destined for this weekend's "The Decadence of Decay" show @ Rivet Gallery (along with Cris Rose) launching March 6th (Amanda will be in attendance) and exhibits thru March 31st, 2010.

What Amanda mentioned in her previous Q&A on TOYSREVIL, when asked "What can folks expect from you for the upcoming show?"
AMANDA SPAYD: "I think people can expect a little more direct personality from my work this time. There will be a lot of the usual unsettling blank stares, crooked teeth, and creepy-cute, but also some guys interacting with the world around them. Some of them have props they're interacting with, or find themselves in situations they can't remedy. That's something I'd like to continue exploring."
