Softcore War

Quite some time has passed since my last post, but a jolt of inspiration has sprung on me. Last Friday was the opening of an amazing show here in Atlanta. Softcore War : new works by Ann-Marie Manker opened to a hungry crowd at WhiteSpace. The works explore a sugar-coated fantasy world of a female suicide bomber, where guns shoot birthday candles instead of bullets, cars melt into icing and whipped cream after they explode, and balloon animals serve as accomplices. Do you need any other reasons to go see the show? Softcore War runs through October 9 and can be seen Wednesday through Saturday from 11 to 5 at WhiteSpace.

Now check out these rad paintings :
