Previewed here in this blog-post feature is a look at works from a trio of artists, starting with Andrew Bell's deliciously devious sculpts (up top), as most chocolates are lol … followed by the killer-cute creatures from Stan Manoukian, and finally below, a splendid performance of mechanical-macabre from Stephan Webb!

Sentimentrees by Gary Ham @ Stranger Factory (Nov 1-Dec 1)

EVENT PRESS: ""Sentimentrees" by Gary Ham is based around the personification of his own sentimental childhood memories. If the things we loved as a child could walk and talk, what would their childhood be like? As children, we saw our treehouse as a trusted friend and sanctuary; as adults we see a wood box nailed into tree branches. "Sentimentrees" brings us back to seeing our playthings through the optimism and unconditional love of our youth. "

"Sentimentrees" is a solo show by Gary Ham launching November 1st at Stranger Factory and exhibiting thru December 1st (with an opening reception on Friday, November 1st from 6-9PM.). Shown here up top, is his piece titled "Treehouseman".
