Complexities of Union - work by Colleen Mulligan

Tarryn Teresa Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of new paintings and drawings by emerging artist Colleen Mulligan. This exhibition runs from July 14 through August 11, 2007. An opening reception will take place on July 14th from 5pm to 7pm.

The artists work intentionally manipulates and distorts reality while creating sexually charged images of folding flesh. Purposely non-representational, yet never abstract, these intertwining, organic configurations examine the nature of human relationships.

Through a process Mulligan describes as a natural evolution, she creates imaginative bodies that evoke a sense of intimacy and at times uneasiness. In the act of obscuring and morphing reality, she creates an experience for the viewer that is both as complex and contradictory as a relationship itself.

Tarryn Teresa Gallery is located at 2525 Michigan Avenue, G8A, Santa Monica CA 90404. More info can be found at: http://tarrynteresa.com
