“BEASTIES” Opening Reception at Rebecca Camacho Presents

rebecca camacho presents 794 Sutter Street, San Francisco, CA

"The show began as I was thinking about those stories of orcas that have been inexplicably linked to the destruction and sinking of boats across the Mediterranean. Perhaps this fascination stems from the unpredictability and raw defiance embodied by these aquatic mammals – baffling occurrences that stand in heavy contrast to humans’ ever-quickening technological advancements and rapid domestication and degradation of our shared environment. As an exhibition, BEASTIES ruminates on artists and artworks that mirror the spirit of these orcas, eschewing docile natures and tame-ability for wildness and unknowability."
