Art & Design. The Burning House
Art & Design. The Burning House: Swoon is one of those timeless artists. Her work has made a huge impact in the ways we view street art. Her unique portraits have an unprecedented way of capturing emotion and energy. Every time we're in the LES we can't stop looking at her work. So much so, we had to put her on the cover of issue 5. This month she's part of a great art installment.
Wendy Dembo from Cool Hunting recently attended The Burning House art installation. Here's a snippet of her take on the event: "I was recently in L.A. for the weekend and was lucky enough to catch “The Burning House,” a collaborative installation by Faile, Swoon and David Ellis at New Image Art now extended through 17 March 2007. Walking into the gallery is overwhelming. Much like Wooster on Spring, Every inch of wall, window, or door has been wheat pasted or painted over. As your eyes adjust, you start to see that a Swoon fish cut-out intertwines with a David Ellis “motion” painting, which are on top of a Faile sign. A beautiful and cohesive collaboration, it's hard to tell where one artist’s work ends and another begins."
