The Incurable Disorder
November 7th, 2007 // g + c
Mixed media artist Elizabeth McGrath has a few new curiosities on her “Toykiller” section of her site including two (old but new) limited edition prints, a special limited edition of 200 signed and numbered book case set- which comes with gold and black embossed slipcase, hand screened (yes its real) butcher knife with a velvet anchor bunny bag and an anchor bunny canvas tote bag. Also check out the cute hand silk screened print of a two headed bat snatching away the head off a surprised little girl!
McGrath draws inspiration from such things as roadside attractions, nature, alt fashion, architecture, punk, churches, folklore, Edward Gorey and poetry. Her site features her disturbing yet beautiful art, stitched dolls, dioramas, bags, art cards and yes - hand-painted and rusted butcher knives. You can also still buy her book - Everything That Creeps, which is her first collected work.
Her upcoming exhibition “The Incurable Disorder” opens December 15 and runs until January 5th, 2008 at the Billy Shire Fine Arts Gallery, and will feature her new works.
