Morgan Slade “Savage Justice” At LeBasse Projects
Morgan Slade will open “Savage Justice” at LeBasse Projects on July 17th. The exhibition runs until August 7th. More info from the press release:
ʻSavage Justice,ʼ a solo exhibition by Morgan Slade. Slade creates one of a kind mixed media paintings. Altering his own digital photographs of scantily clad women with paint, pen, pencil and collage he transforms straightforward images to chaotic madness. His pieces prey on primitive natural instincts with a youthful aesthetic appeal and bright, vibrant colors. By defacing exceptionally attractive people, Slade aesthetically changes his figures to appear flawed in some manner. He creates visual metaphors of consumerism, advertising and technology by inventing his own symbols or by appropriating familiar icons.
For ʻSavage Justiceʼ Slade goes one step further by collaborating with iconic designer Betsey Johnson. This exhibition was shot on location in the Betsey Johnson flagship store in Los Angeles utilizing clothing and models from Johnsonʼs own line.
