Green Chalk Contemporary: Jerry Takigawa, "False Food"

This event has already passed

Green Chalk Contemporary in Monterey's Lighthouse District is proud to present the work of Jerry Takigawa in False Food: A Metaphor for Survival, February 1 - March 8. The exhibit features photographs from Takigawa's recent exhibition at the Museum of Craft & Design in San Francisco.

Combining recent images from the ongoing photographic series, False Food, with excerpts from his recent book, Grace in Uncertainty, Jerry Takigawa presents resonant personal work that documents our fragile environment and radiates from a deep sense of purpose. He writes, "The aesthetic transformation of plastic waste in the False Food imagery is a metaphor for survival."

Monterey Bay Aquarium has generously loaned a display piece, which features plastic debris collected from the remains of dead albatross on Midway Island, to accompany this show.

Green Chalk Contemporary art gallery is open Tuesday - Saturday, 3:30pm-7pm or by appointment. For more information, please phone Ami-Sue Lawless at 831-601-0534.
