Adrift at 63 Bluxome Street Gallery

63 Bluxome Street Gallery's opening last weekend showcased three Bay Area talents with the show "Adrift". First we are reacquainted with art duo, Cassandra and Ernie Velasco aka, Doubleparlour whom we featured in HF's latest issue, Vol.22 and got some quality face time with their newest creations, full of attitude and personality. Next up Matt136's unique presentation of cut out paintings on wood. The single piece on view is actually a series of many medium to small pieces arranged across an entire wall to form a pictorial story, one set being a group of mousetraps. Finally is Ken Davis' newest hand lettered, stunning gilded signs! View more images after the jump.
