Tracey Snelling ~ Asphault Jungle












 photos by Styrous®










Last night the exhibition, Asphault Jungle, featuring the multimedia sculptures of Tracey Snelling opened at the Jules Maeght Gallery (link below).   

The installations are representative of life around us, shops of various kinds, apartments, porn shops, convenience stores, motels, brothels, etc., almost all set in a slum environment and all done in miniature scale. The works contain video, photos, neon signs and whatever she can get her hands on.
























































The one piece that is not similar to the rest of the work is Drift which is almost life-size and idylic; until you look at it closely.
