(detail) Description Cameron Hayes, a young Australian artist, will exhibit figurative paintings comprised of elaborate narratives in complex compositions. The paintings, some more than eight feet wide, are montages of cartoonish characters and multitudinous scenes that illustrate allegories of human frailty, stupidity, and savagery. Images of sex, violence, and perversions are rendered with a microscopic, surrealistic craftsmanship. Hayes uses repetition, patterning, and other compositional devices to unify the visual anarchy and shifting perspectives.
