Speaking In Tongues Group Art Show Recap



Together as one, many artists grounded the walls of Black Vulture Gallery in Philly for the "Speaking in Tongues" group art show. Curated by Buddy Nestor, the paintings hung in strange melancholy and also each stand on their own. I was truly honored to be a part of the group art show and created a new painting called the Oracle, seen above.

The night started with myself and fellow artist Kristen Margiotta, we traveled up from Delaware knowing the night would be an adventure, it sure was, first I missed the exit and ended up traveling up South street, we finally made it to Fishtown in one piece and were invited by a mob of people filled within the walls of obscurity. The environment was thrilling, live painting to the thrashing metal of Decap Attak, I had many favorites of the night, including Ewelina Ferruso's "The Return" and Zac Shiffer's "Reflections From Far Away."

You can check out more about the show over at Hi-Fructose Magazine, with this little preview of the show, but def make some plans to see this lovely dark show in person.

Hope you all can make it out this Friday even for the opening of the
Speaking in Tongues: A group art show at the Black Vulture Gallery in Philly, PA curated by Buddy Nestor himself. I'm truly honored to be featured along with over 60 other artists. I especially am eager to see one of my favs, Spinestealer who is all the way out from Los Angeles, I have longed to see her work in person.

I have a new painting I created for this show, called the Oracle, she is no.0048 of the Skeleton Krew Collection, I will be revealing images at a later time but wanted to share the tale of her. Stayed tuned for prints of her as well.

"The word of the oracle spread. The veins of the earth collide with her soul, transforming her prophecies through an ecstatic trance state. The all seeing eye is the revelation of divine providence, upholding the natural order of the universe."
