STEEMIANS - Let me introduce you to a very special phone. Without phone lines, without a data plan, without an operator...This phone rings and answers to god. This booth lights up when you're near it, begging you to connect with it. You can interact with GOD in person tonight at the closing of my solo art show in Oakland! Details below!
WE ARE HAVING A CLOSING RECEPTION FOR THIS SHOW TONIGHT SATURDAY APRIL 14th from 6-10pm.
PLEASE COME, WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU!
Temple Stairs: A multimedia exhibit by Bud Snow featuring sculpture, painting, and installation.
This body of work focuses on the vibrational nature of the universe. From the perspective that we are majority non-physical beings that came here to create, experience diversity, beauty, expansion, and joy. In this space, cultural symbols (a woman's gown, celebratory masks) and objects of human interest (the handgun, the spray can, the phone booth) get uplifted to spiritual icons of our time; Symbolic of our diversity, but ultimately our sameness.
Emphasizing non-precious, child-like materials, found vintage objects, and simple electronics Bud hosts a feeling of nostalgia, intrigue, and magic.
Alongside are traditional and 3 dimensional paintings of our non-physical environments; realms of alien life, unusual interiors, bilateral beings, and personal memories of those passed - paying homage to an afterlife, or more likely, a concurrent non physical life.
If energy can not be created or destroyed, where does it all go when we die? Perhaps it is all still here. Can we learn to perceive in a new way? Can we experience the support, beauty, and bounty of the vibrational universe that so generously raises and sinks the sun every single day?
Hailing from a background in street art, the circus, theatrical activism, photography, spiritualism, and the DIY movements of punk and skateboarding - expect a fusion of West coast, contemporary, illustrative style.
Bud's studio has been at Faultline Artspace for the last three years. This will be her first time showing in the Faultline gallery.
Please come enjoy these new works in a multimedia environment.
