“Woodpecker stretches the definition of romanticism to reference both the emotive paintings of centuries past, and the modern struggle with post-industrial malaise. Situated in a teenage wasteland that hovers between nature and urban decay, Bark’s listless figures partake in skinny-dipping, huffing, and smoking marijuana.” Artist’s statement: “I’ve always been very sensitive to light, even in my house… It’s all about how the light makes you feel.

Paul Thek “The Tomb (frequently called Death of a Hippie)”
Paul Thek – The Tomb (1967) “Officially Paul Thek died in 1988, but really he died twice.

Thek became the unwilling prophet of the failure of counterculture idealism and could not regain the tragicomic intensity of The Tomb or his Technological Reliquaries, wax sculptures of raw meat and body parts encased within vitrines.” “The Tomb consisted of a one-story-high, pale pink structure reminiscent of a Sumerian ziggurat, within which lay a full-size, painstakingly crafted effigy of Thek himself.
