Brooklyn, New York based artist Esao Andrews’ (featured) new body of work entitled “Nowhere” is currently on show at Thinkspace Gallery in Culver City, California.
“The new series of paintings comprising “Nowhere” continue Esao’s haunted and lonely landscapes, portraits and scenes that merge surrealism with real world emotion along with inanimate objects and anthropomorphized animals that constitute their own sense of will and purpose. Many of these paintings are meant to stand alone, but they all suggest a changing of seasons and the anticipation of new beginnings. “Nowhere” refers to a desolate place that stands as a seemingly bleak starting point where time has been passing by unnoticed. These images show signs of hope; that fleeting moment where the subjects have resolved their wait and emerge for their first steps towards a new life. A silent film also plays showcasing time-lapsed details of the work being created and strengthens how they relate to one another.”
“Nowhere” runs through January 28, 2012. To see more visit Thinkspace Gallery and check out Esao.org to see previous works.
