The Solo Show of Chris Sheridan
Free Sketching Session with Live Model
6-8pm Come with your sketchbooks!
Live Musical Performance by
Ghosts of Handsome Skin
Begins at 9pm
Chris Sheridan's show Shadows, Persona, and Trickery takes an in-depth look at magic and religion, their symbolism and ritual, how they played a role in building our early societies, and the disconnect between these theories and beliefs and contemporary modes of thinking. Deeply psychological, laced with multiple layers of meaning and references to the trickster archetype, the work also explores the manipulative quality found in us all. Also hidden in the work is the artist's search for the soul, which he believes is the construct that holds all of these ideas together in our collective unconscious.
