Mistaking a Bruise for a Shadow

Stage 3, TLC Student and Multimedia artist, Rebecca Dodds, is hosting her 3rd exhibition. A solo exhibition of curiously macabre works that take a look into the inner psyche of the human condition.

Whether you are a horror fan, an anatomy enthusiast, or lover of art that pushes the norm, there is something for everyone.

The exhibition opening is being held on Halloween night (October 31st) at the new gallery “St. Art” on Cuba street.

Rebecca’s work explores many subjects including the ever-present fear of death that is ingrained in those of the western world from an early age. How each human when pulled apart is made of all the same components as each other and as nature, thus dark thoughts we have (but may not act on) can be as cruel as that of nature, or as joyful. This exhibition helps the artist and the viewer to understand parts of the shadow, that it’s okay to have it, and that it’s sometimes better to recognize it than to suppress it.

Mistaking A Bruise For A Shadow includes mixed-media paintings, crafts and jewelery made by Rebecca Dodds during 2009.
