Ally Rae Peeples Announces First Solo Exhibition "Crowd Surfing"

Los Angeles, CA - Get ready to be thrilled, amazed, and distorted by Ally Rae Peeples' first solo exhibition, "Crowd Surfing," which will be held at the Lowell Ryan Projects in Los Angeles. This fantastical journey into the art world will take place from June 17 to July 29, 2023, at 4619 W. Washington Blvd. Prepare yourself for a wild ride!

Ally Rae Peeples' paintings are sure to leave you in awe. Her use of bright colors and distorted figures will transport you to a world beyond your wildest dreams. She paints the works freehand, using her own personal style to create each masterpiece.

"Crowd Surfing" is a one-of-a-kind exhibition that explores the idea of performance and the various masks that people wear in order to navigate their lives. Peeples' distorted figures reference the caricatures that she grew up around in Orlando, where her sister was a child actress in the city's amusement parks. Through her work, she examines the rising difficulty of truly connecting with others in an age where technology dominates our lives.

Peeples' use of technology such as Procreate and Facetune allows her to manipulate images and create compositions that are both chaotic and structured. The color palette in Peeples' work is intuitive, with colors pulled from the reference photos she sources. She draws inspiration from unlikely places, rather than directly from art history or other painters, in order to maintain her personal style.

If you're ready for an adventure, then be sure to mark your calendar for June 17. The exhibition's opening reception will take place from 5-8pm, and the artist will be present to answer all of your questions. Drinks will be served, so come ready to have some fun!
