Faced with the task of taking care of his senile dad, Adrian Lane attempts to seek out a humane way of ending his father's life. His earnest Craigslist posting brings unexpected consequences. Skinheads. Meth induced visions. Murder. And the true value of friendship.

Mound

Allison Schulnik

Mound is a celebration of the moving painting, in which more than one hundred pallid puppets – clowns, spectres, gnomes, wraiths, and ghouls – writhe, sway, plod, and transform with awkward grace to the mournful musical accompaniment of It’s Raining Today(1969) by legendary singer-songwriter Scott Walker (also known as Noel Scott Engel).

Forest

Long Hair Hobo, one of the artist’s favorite characters, springs to life in brightly colored and joyous clay (an enchanted palette in a savage world), his limbs and clothing beating to the rhythm of the music. He comes face to face with his alter ego, who is transformed, melts and changes into a rainbow before morphing into a lake. Long Hair Hobo is wonderstruck at the sight of this magnificent visual feast intercut with images of fields and greenspace, in what is a masterful integration of the real and virtual. An eloquent testimony to the impossibility of an unchanging identity, this work reveals the uncertainty and instability that accompany human beings throughout their lives.
