A Little Bug Told Me
Saint Germain Gallery –
Thursday, June 15th 6pm-9pm
About the Exhibition
Featuring new paintings by Kristian Adam and guest artist Megz Majewski
Here’s the Gallery curator Chris talking about the idea behind the upcoming show at Saint Germain:
“Kristian Adam wanted to explore themes of nature from the perspective of a ladybug. ‘Madame Bug’, a travelling insect in search of utopia, begins her journey in the forest, which she knows all too well, but as she wanders further into the unknown, she encounters wild landscapes and ridiculous looking creatures the likes of which she has never seen. The ladybug narrative started out as an experiment on some postcards Adam created for a fundraiser for ‘The Heart and Stroke Foundation’ called SPREAD THE LOVE. Some of the pieces were quite abstract and others surreal. He found that the ladybug character added a friendly and familiar entry point into some of his stranger pieces. Later on he realized it was unravelling some kind of story. The exhibit will feature several new works, some organic and abstract, and some with a children’s illustrative theme, in the vain of Dr. Seuss. The recurrent character, who will be featured in all the paintings and will help tie things together, is ‘Madame Bug’.
