Capturing the Surreal

InLiquid Gallery 1400 North American, Suit 108, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Capturing the Surreal highlights the work of three artists inventing bright and new realities. Vibrant, color-forward, and an explosion of energy, each artist’s work is a commentary on society that begins with the question: what is real and what isn’t? Through photography, artificial reality, and animation, the artists evoke dream-like fantasies that intertwine their lived experiences with their interaction between the physical and the virtual world. Immersive and powerful, their work dives into a space of light and color that threads humorous narratives of the visually and conceptually surreal. Kelli Williams and Charmaine Caire bring puppets, dolls, and figurines to
