BIANCA CURRY-NAGUIT
Shopping Trip
acrylic on canvas
30” x 20”
DESCRIPTION
Shopping Trip utilizes the impending emptiness and eerie vacancy of
forgotten spaces: empty mannequins, shelves of nothing, barren hangers,
quiet abandonment. This piece allows one to wander through clothing racks
in a way that feels lost, like traveling through a forgotten ruin. Figures
that would once promise identity are subject to nothing. The space has
transformed in a way that is beautifully haunting, a place that draws you in
compulsively, as if coming back might be exposing.
