A FOREST

SEPTEMBER 30th - OCTOBER 1st
SQUERO DI SAN TROVASO, VENICE

On September 30th Pejac will be opening a 2 days show in Venice, Italy, at the iconic Squero di San Trovaso, one of the very last places where traditional gondolas are still hand made.

"A Forest" will consist mostly of the artist's most recent works from The Redemption Series, done on pressed wood panels. This particular series is addressing the senseless ways in which humans are using natural resources, leaving a shameful trail of destruction behind. By re purposing these evidences of human nearsightedness into poetic visual interventions, Pejac brings these objects back to life and creates eye opening narratives. The impact of these unparalleled works is only accented by exhibiting them in a sinking city, among some of the very last craftsmen that created the images of Venice as the world knows it.

This exhibition is coinciding with the Venice Biennale so the artworks will be for viewing only. The opening hours are on 30th of September from 4 to 9 pm and on 1st of October from 11 am to 8 pm.

Thanks all for the kind words on Seppuku.
It's now on the wall. A very heavy wall. It all looks pretty full on in person, but I'm gonna leave it for now. See how it goes.

They look great, Wotta! Particularly the hand-finished Wound! :shock: :drool:

(Personally, I might not hang them all together, but it looks great nonetheless)

I can see that piece becoming part of the annual Christmas decorations.

I may be wrong, but €2600 for a ship in a plastic bottle seems a little insane.

The hype is already insane. Might as well make the retail prices match.

Yeah, I guess so. If people are climbing over themselves to pay you €2600 for a glorified version of this, might as well take it I suppose...

Anyway, Pejac has many stronger images and objects, weird this comes out. I always thought the cityscape beartraps were clever.
