I: THE ICONAGONES

This new work by Lisa Gray features many Hollywood starlets from the 1950’s rendered digitally blameless despite the self destructive behaviors that often led to the most tragic of consequences.

In her thickly layered imagery, the beautiful and the ugly, the humorous and the sorrowful are inextricably interwoven, creating associations that exude an almost mystical fascination with a world that explains itself in contradiction.

II: GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS and Other Nefarious Delights…

Stephen Gray’s newest photographic collages continue to weave together the twisted strands of thought, motivation, and the bestial human instincts of Billy, the semi-biographical character Gray created as his muse in 2005.

Through the old fashioned technique of collage, Gray portrays a world populated by juvenile innocence and adult guilt.
