CHIMERA : A SOLO EXHIBITION FEATURING STAN CLARK
Kai Lin Art is pleased to announce CHIMERA, a genre-defying selection of new work by artist Stan Clark. In this latest exhibition, Stan takes viewers on a trip through tall-tales, both familiar and strange:
“I’ve always loved borrowing from mythological themes in my art, and this show is no different. Each picture represents a composite of multiple images, as I often splice drawings or fragments of work together to arrive at a finished work of art. This process inspired me to play with the theme of ‘chimerism,’ a reference to fantastical creatures made up of disparate parts from various animals. This idea of taking things that don’t typically belong together and finding ways to make them connect became not just a narrative element but also stylistic approach. In this show, you’ll see images that blur the lines between drawing and painting, between printmaking and collage, between digital vs. analog. You can expect to see pop elements and classical motifs combined in surprising ways, with the results being more magical than the sum of its parts.”
