(Below: Setting up at Stranger Factory)
PRESS RELEASE: "Stranger Factory is excited to welcome "Dubious Beasts: Life Cycles," featuring new works from Shing Yin Khor and Leslie Levings.
Life Cycles is the third installment of their collaborative series, in which Levings and Khor explore the stages of development of their curiously adorable creatures through their much-celebrated pseudo-scientific methods.
Paired with an obsession for natural history museums, trophy heads, and cabinets of curiosities, Levings and Khor bring to Stranger Factory a delightful menagerie of colourful, beady eyed critters – in the form of plentiful original sculptures and watercolour paintings. Be on the lookout for embryonic sightings, wee egg clusters, and cocooned creatures awaiting their final metamorphosis!
The exhibit runs March 6th through April 4th, with an opening reception on Friday, March 6th from 6 – 9 PM. Both artists will be in attendance."
Featured here a montage of pieces from both Shing Yin Khor (IG @sawdustbear / montage-above) and Leslie Levings (IG @beastlies / montage-below), for which full previews can be viewed here on www.strangerfactory.com. The words "Magical" and "Wonderous" pop immediately to mind … Do note that is also the first show at Stranger Factory’s new location @ 3411 Central Avenue NE, Albuquerque, NM 87106.
