VICTORI + MO is pleased to announce Adrienne Elise Tarver: Secrets of Leaves, an immersive exhibition of new work from Adrienne Elise Tarver building on her explorations of voyeurism, boundaries, and discovery, opening February 17, 2017 and on view through March 19, 2017. Secrets of Leaves consists of caulking paintings on wire mesh and sculptures of varying scale, affixed to the gallery walls and hung from the ceiling throughout the space. The walls will be painted with flora motifs, interspersed with leaf sculptures protruding at various intervals creating the sense of not only viewing a jungle, but being in one. Channeling the tropics and the legacy of imperialism, the paintings in this series are in conversation with not just the practices of Henri Rousseau and Paul Gauguin but also the real-world implication of their art, and recall the vibrancy and visual signatures of Chris Ofili and Peter Doig.
