“Infinity or Bust”
A trans-formative gallery exhibition and installation experience by Shrine. Intentionally showcasing not only Shrine's work, "Infinity or Bust" includes a survey of artwork and performance pieces handpicked by Shrine himself. In turn he's added supplemental visual and musical direction to this already limitless theme. When creating artwork for infinity, there should be no limits... "Infinity or Bust".
