Hell’O Collective’s “Dystopia” at First Amendment.
Opening Thursday, November 2nd, 2017 at First Amendment Gallery in San Francisco, California is Hell’O Collective’s exhibition, “Dystopia.”
“Through their creative approach, characterized by its extreme conventional freedom, as well as its rigorous execution, they produce a fertile, imaginary fantasy world, sometimes grotesque yet always poetic. A kind of strange fantastic bestiary, populated with enigmatic animals and vaguely human-looking, asexual creatures, with shapes and symbols drawn from the iconography of fairy tales, fables, and other medieval allegories, ancient and contemporary mythologies, but also vanities, esotericism and surrealism. Death, hope, failure, optimism, frivolity, animalism, cruelty, constraint and the desire to control are the most frequently addressed themes in the works of Hell’O.” - First Amendment Gallery.
The exhibition will be on view until November 30th, 2017. Continue below to see some fantastic behind the scenes photographs of Hell’O Collective preparing their work for the exhibition:
