ALICE & CLARK

Skin Deep / The Kiss of Life No. 5

We hit the road for our first pop-up at the opening of Gwen O'Brien's
Skin Deep / The Kiss of Life No. 5, now exhibiting at 632 Wealthy in Grand Rapids, MI. 

Consisting of two projects, the exhibition touched on one of the major themes of existence; our relationship with ourselves.

Here's Gwen's artist statement and the full set of images:

Skin Deep is the first in a series of photographs and collage experiments exploring identity, gender, sexuality, and desire.

The Kiss of Life No. 5 was shot at Ten Thousand Waves in the mountains of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The Kiss is a blend of smoking herbs and cannabis—created for moments of connection with yourself and with others.
