Los Angeles-based artist Morgan Slade will be showing at Shooting Gallery in San Francisco starting this Saturday, January 8th with a nicely titled Company Killers. The show will featuere 10-12 mixed-media pieces around the themes of consumerism in relation to "communication and to our identification of the self or the group." With a name like Company Killers, you knd of have to go at consumerism head-on.
Slade photographs his female subjects himself, and then reworks their images onto the mixed-media canvases like you see below. The busy nature of each piece taps into that over-abundance and consumerism theme mentioned in the background of the show.
The show opens this Saturday, January 8 in San Francisco.
