PHANTASMAGORIA : KARMIKAZE and MORGAN PLANT

exhibition art by KARMIKAZE and MORGAN PLANT
July 5, 2024 to August 1, 2024
PHANTASMAGORIA is a collection of mixed media works by karmikaze and Morgan Plant. The works came as a result of feverish experimentation and the compulsive need for creation. Inside this exhibition you will observe what results are left when an idea is ripped from the soul of the artist and pressed to the page. The artists have created numerous pieces, from etchings to linocuts to oil paintings, demonstrating interdisciplinary study and the endless opportunities these materials can provide. Each work tells a different story, whether it be an allegorical overview of the ordeal of being known, or a fantastical world full of mystery and beautiful creatures. The phantasmagoric collected creations on display invite the viewer to go spelunking in another’s mind and emerge into a new light.
