Alex Garant – 3AM Rococo

3AM Rococo is an exhibition of realistically rendered op art paintings by Alex Garant. Exploring darker tones and playing with patterns and textures, Alex Garant has created portraits in which the faces and eyes of her subjects seem to skip their registers through image redoubling and superimposition.

OPENING NIGHT: Saturday, February 9, from 6pm – 9pm. Free entry. Alex Garant will be in attendance!

This exhibition runs from February 10 to March 3 and runs alongside the solo shows: Brian Cheung’s Mass Behaviour and Troy Coulterman’s Watching, Waiting.

This series introduces more ornamental and theatrical elements that intensify storytelling possibilities.
