Year of The Rabbit

A solo-show of new work by Neil M. Perry at Screaming Sky Gallery (1416 NE Alberta St.)

2011 has been the year of the Rabbit. In my most recent series of drawings and paintings the White Emperor watches over his Kingdom and the recently deposed wolves are banished to the dark outer-reaches.
We live in a complex world that has a skewed perception of meritocracy and occasionally no use for it at all. Tyrannical oligarchy has replaced democracy and the decisions that affect our lives are being heavily influenced, if not decided absolutely, by the super rich. Elected officials are a puppet show and it appears we may have been safer running with wolves than sitting among the rabbits. Art reflecting life, whatever next?
