A sublime darkness has fallen upon Rose Eken’s habitually bright and playful visual universe; step through the looking glass and emerge in a parallel world of sensual beauty and abyssal horror. The artist’s fifth solo exhibition with V1 Gallery / Eighteen transforms the white cube of Eighteen into an occult forrest. Here, monochrome black skulls, ashtrays, tarot cards, masks, and ravens mingle with Lovecraftian ceremonial vessels, lush displays of magical, deadly botanics, and dramatic busts of black metal performers. And the Forests Dream Eternally is Eken’s loving homage to marginal subcultures, while simultaneously ushering in a new direction for the artist – away from faithful representation and into the realm of stylized symbolism. Ever the maverick medium between disparate worlds, Eken assembles a dramatic and empowering anti-mythos, adding her voice to a Zeitgeist of speculation, mysticism and spirituality spreading across our cultural landscape.
