Happy Birthday Stinky!
Jenny Day’s show Happy Birthday Stinky! Which immediately transported from the mundane into a colorful birthday party for a skunk! Well rendered globs of clay sculptures piled into the middle of the room by the dozens. The artist’s fingerprints are evident all over–pinched and smoothed into the clay, glazes slicked on in a charming rainbow of hues. Dead leaves, a Happy Birthday banner, cigarette butts, a burst open dinosaur piñata, half-eaten plates of cake, and more filled the space. It all spelled out a delightful tale. But one that could have the potentially ominous implications when squinted at with care. - Quiet Lunch
