Stay Trippy
Stay Trippy \ November 16 - December 22, 2024
Stay Trippy is a group exhibition presented in partnership with Stoned Books, featuring 42 unique works by North American tattoo artists whose contributions will also be found within the pages of Stoned Books’ latest release, Stay Trippy. This exhibition delves into the transformative themes and surreal experiences associated with psychedelics, inviting viewers on a journey through vibrant and mind-expanding artwork.
The show presents an eclectic array of spiritual motifs, bold color palettes, and nuanced interpretations of the psychedelic experience, showcasing the diverse talents of each contributing artist. United by their prominence as tattoo artists, these creators bring distinct styles that resonate with a wide audience, making this exhibition an immersive exploration of skill, vision, and the limitless possibilities of altered perception.
