redhouse art exhibit

I thought this exhibit was really interesting... especially the artist who did the video of the grafetti appearing to be revealed or "painted back." The guy also painted pigme-like faces on the bottles of various licquor bottles and glass bottles. Not going to lie these images kind of gave me the creeps, and now that I think about it, the deformed faces on the liquor bottles remind me of babies born with fetal alcohol syndrom. The faces were somewhat haunted. Painted with acylic paints, I noticed that the artist had spray painted some of the background with a rusty brown to add a little contrast, which I liked. Overall, pretty cool exhibit.
