Mass Populous
In her latest body of work, Megan Wolfe examines issues of survival and coexistence through wildlife found in the urban environment. However, ‘urban wildlife’ is a hypocritical term. Portraying masses of pigeons competing for space and food, a parallel is drawn between our culture and the natural world. In a way, nature has adapted, feeding on our scraps, walking alongside us, in order to survive. Likewise, though mankind has progressed, it retains a glimmer of its animalistic qualities. Under the right conditions, we equally become a mass populace consumed by self-preservation. In either case, nature becomes a bastardization of itself, with neither party able to reconcile their similarities, and always continually at odds with one another. The shows opening will take place at Cafe Royale at 800 Post Street (@ Leavenworth) on Thursday, 09/03 from 8pm to midnight.
