PRESENT

August 8 - 24
Emily Hunt & Raquel Welch
Hoochie Choochie

The fabled myths of death, the grotesque and the bizarre come to life in an excessively ornamented carnivale in Raquel Welch and Emily Hunt’s Hoochie Choochie. Imaginary beasts and exaggerated caricatures are displayed in an set-up which can best described as a behavioural study of the fantastic. Each scene features craftily constructed figures that are embellished with a nod to the crude elements of voodoo. But with a natural disposition towards the absurd, Hunt & Welch’s make-believe underworld is nothing short of eccentric.
