EXHIBITION


Pleased to present OMNI VANITAS at our satellite space Art Gallery Studios in Colonia Juárez, Mexico City. OMNI VANITAS in its entirety on our collectors platform ARTSY (February 10 - March 10, 2023)

OMNI VANITAS features the collaborative works of the art duo ORT Project. This union of artists Anna Noelle Rockwell and Oona Nelson explore and critique aspects of consumption, abundance, and decay through lush installations, photographs and interactive gestures.

Their point of reference is the table, a site of dining and display, which they use as a staging platform for painterly nature morte tableaux in which the artists create ephemeral installations and photographs of edible and inedible subjects. Their work takes on the implications of food beyond that of nourishment, instead ORT marinates the more insidious, but visually rich implications—poisonous, gluttonous or hedonistic—to offer intoxicating critiques of social attitudes with collective perils.

Within their work ORT blends the influence of art history, the contemporary cult of convenience and abundance, along with the corresponding environmental threats and distorted value systems, into uncommon balances of the grotesque and the beautiful.

 

Private viewing rooms, artwork details and and collector acquisitions are available on ARTSY.
