What the ?
What does it mean? Where DO we stand?
Mixed messages, absurd scenarios, improbable unrealities – M. Mark Bauer wades into dynamic narratives and an onslaught of incomprehensible untruths, pervasive and invasive, redirecting the course of events and outcome potentials at hand. Mesmerizing rhythmic patterns groove in undulating serenity as wildly complex scenarios unfold in the eight canvases on view. Hybrid creatures and colorful characters cavort in a surreal concoction that speaks to the consequences of our collective insanity on each other and the natural world while sly humor entertains with bursts of sudden recognition. The Artist observes as Eye-hook, Snake Tongue, Bo Peep and a Sheep and The Big Bad Wolf join in this precisely executed spectacle of chaos.
