Mixed media artist Femke Hiemstra will bring her speculative visual fictions to Merry Karnowsky Gallery on July 30th for a three -person show including Audrey Kawasaki and Deedee Cheriel. Forming her fantastical paintings around a cast of odd characters usually involving anthropomorphic creatures and personified inanimate objects, the work is often composed on found objects such as antique book covers and wooden clock bases. These interesting “canvas” choices lend themselves to the detailed works; showcasing a mastery of color and composition, freckled with immaculate typography. Take a peek at more preview images below.
