POOR TRAITS / duo show with Gerben Mulder / Frank TAAL Gallery / Rotterdam 2018
Stephen j Shanabrook’s new sculptures are reflections on emotional deconstructs, a dissected reality presented with dark humor.
The artist uses mixed media but mostly found plastic, material, which is a symbolic fossil of contemporary society. Like in “DRUNK & PREGNANT”,
sculptural portrait of a pregnancy gone wrong, of distorted representations of guts resembling Philip Guston painting.
