Ahh, can’t believe we almost missed this, even though we saw it last week and thought the preview images looked mad!

“Opening Friday June 10, 6-8pm, is our first solo exhibition of the year, Galactic Cannibalism, featuring new paintings and drawings by Sarah Mottram.

Her refined paintings can take years to complete and show a passion and dedication to her process that is unparalleled. Within her canvases are forms taken from architecture and CAD models that intertwine and push and pull with unseen magnetic forces. Her paintings create a new environment, uninhabitable, yet welcoming the eye through a kind of visual wonderland.”

The pieces border on the crazy chaotic, yet have definitive themes and micro-detail within them, and each one we’ve looked at leads the eye across the canvas, just begging you to zero in even further – this is painting at its weirdest, wildest, and coolest.

Who: Sarah Mottram
What: Galactic Cannibalism solo show
