Andy Kehoe will have his first solo show at Roq La Rue this October with an exhibition of darkly enchanting paintings entitled "Arise Feral Night".
This new series focuses on the otherwordly landscapes and nature-spirit denizens that populate Kehoe's work, however this new series opens up an even deeper portal to Kehoe's world, one that contains a similar magic and enigmatic mystery as that of Hayao Miyazaki.
Since it's in October around Halloween I decided to do a series based on the coming of night to my land. I've been meaning to do a night series for a while and this seemed like an appropriate time to do it. Most of my work exists in a state of constant Autumn and constant twilight. Night does come every once in a while but it's a different kind of night. Layers between worlds, tenuous to begin with, open up and intertwine. Fade in and out. So there's a lot of thin, overlapping layers of different worlds all converging and creatures wandering in and out of these worlds. - Andy Kehoe
