Ana Bagayan: Futurealism Opening Reception

La Luz de Jesus Gallery’s exhibition Futurealism, a solo exhibition exhibiting the newest series by Ana Bagayan, opens December 6th at 4633 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90027. A simple thematic change in Bagayan's artwork transports the view into alien worlds with big-eyed cosmic children. Bagayan coins this style 'Futurealism'. This series of portraits are painted with an eerie glitch effect. 3D glasses will be provided at the opening for enhanced viewing. Open bar but please tip the bartender for each drink. Artist Statement Infusing my past and present styles, this show is a transition from my big-eyed human figures to depictions of alien characters. I started my illustration and fine art career painting emotional big-eyed children. Years later, when I came across the alien abduction phenomenon, I noticed an uncanny resemblance between my characters and the human-alien hybrid children.A simple thematic change in my artwork transported us into alien worlds with big-eyed cosmic children. This style of art has become known as Futurealism.
