Shawn Huckins’s “Dirty Laundry.”

Opening June 2nd, 2022 at Duran Mashaal Gallery in Montréal, Quebec is artist Shawn Huckins’s must see solo exhibition, “Dirty Laundry.”

Huckins says of the work: “We use cloth to conceal, but also to express, selectively, based on how we see ourselves and how we want others to see us. Of course, we don’t express all facets of our identity, some things we hold near out of habit, nature, or fear of ridicule. We all have dirty laundry, literally and figuratively. ‘Dirty laundry’, the phrase, is defined as personal, or private affairs that one does not want made public as they would cause distress and embarrassment. 'Dirty Laundry’, the series, employs contemporary fabrics painted over traditional American portraiture to explore questions surrounding what, how much, and how well we share and hide.”
