Drawing inspiration from the old masters, surrealism, and science fiction, contemporary urban artist, Mishfit uses her symbolic imagery to poke fun at humankind’s response to existential crisis, in her irreverent new collection of post pandemic paintings, titled "Bubble Gum Apocalypse."
Since the collapse of life as we knew it 3 years ago, the world has become a very confusing place indeed. With conspiracy theories, climate change denial and alternative facts threatening our grip on reality, this new painting collection is the artist’s attempt to make sense of it all, or at least poke fun. Because let’s face it, if we don’t laugh, we cry.
Drawing on the old master paintings, and clashing this will an urban art aesthetic, this vivid, striking and disorientating collection pulls the viewer into lost worlds. Where its inhabitants are grappling with their own realities, questioning their own place in the world, showing resilience, defiance and hope, as they laugh in the face of their own extinction. Sound familiar anyone?
Ultimately this collection acts as a reminder that we need to make the most of life, to enjoy the little things, and take action when is matters most.
With painting titles such as the "Apocalypse Wow," "Wake me up when it’s all over," and "What Doesn’t kill you," this thought-provoking collection will blast away the cobwebs and make your eyes go pop.
