Vanessa Rishel: Safe Haven, Dark Corners Opening
530 South Coast Highway, Oceanside, 92054
Cost: Free
The solo exhibition by South Bay San Diego artist Vanessa Rishel will run from September 21st to November 10th, with an opening reception on September 21st.
Vanessa Rishel's latest body of work delves into the complex realms of the psyche, utilizing soft focus dreamscapes to explore the inner workings of identity and self-perception. "Safe Haven, Dark Corners" showcases Rishel’s unique approach to painting, where childhood trinkets, plushies, and anime aesthetics become models for her evocative scenes. This method imbues her large scale monochrome oil paintings with a sense of theatricality and emotional depth.
