Samara Golden @ Night Gallery









Back Seat Dodge becomes front seat Beamer. Post event. Interstices. Prohibitive labyrinth. Insulative barrier. Confusion of interiority/exteriority. Exquisitely rendered portraits (Odd Nerdrum). Part of the show? The afterglow. Hackneyed sunset imagery. Very specific details (one cigarette in an ash tray). Inversion. Disorientation. Conflated kitchen (kitsch?) consumption. Stuffed animal (childhood talisman) becomes suggested smorgasbord. Heat lamps. Accoutrements of domesticity. Mass consumption and bourgeois desire. Classic struggles... Chronos devours her young.
