Art & Design Alum Samantha Lindbeck opening "Trash Babies"

Art & Design Alum's artwork featured at local brewery

"Trash Babies" is a name that I call my cats whom I bought for 20 dollars a piece from a Craigslist Ad. It has graduated into a term of endearment among friends, and it always makes me laugh. So, when I started making this series of collage images with donated and found magazines, Goodwill Books, thrift store frames and the like... I just nicknamed them "Trash Babies" as well. Essentially they became these beings that rose from the trash and I couldn't come up with anything more honest to name them, so here they are. Fine Art and Trash don't often couple up together, but you'll find it here. They are Trash Babies, and they are funny, and creepy and striking and odd. Come one, come all to the freak show that is my latest art series, just in time for Halloween. If you can't make it to the opening, stop into Blacklist anytime during the following 2 weeks after the opening, grab a beautiful beer (that pairs so well with art!) and enjoy my Trash Babies!
