Jupiter is pleased to present The Enemy of My Enemy, an exhibition of new and never-before-seen paintings and sculptures by New York-based painter Elbert Perez, which highlight the artist’s visual lexicon that is both representational and otherworldly. Grounded in Buddhist philosophy of desire, Christian doctrines of heaven and hell, and twenty-first century coping mechanisms suggested by the artist’s therapist, the exhibition presents an uncanny juxtaposition of subjects and motifs that rather wittily elucidate the harbingers of an anxious mind.
Elbert Perez (b. 1991, Brooklyn, NY) has been featured in solo and group exhibitions at Rachel Uffner Gallery, New York, NY; Babayaga Gallery, Hudson, NY; Venus Over Manhattan, New York, NY; Kimberly Klark, Queens, NY; and Basilica Back Gallery, Hudson, NY, among others. Perez is based between Hudson and New York City.
