Winnie Truong at Mulherin Pollard Projects, New York

Opening Reception: Thursday, March 31, 6 - 8 PM
Mulherin Pollard Projects
317 10th Avenue New York, NY

Open through April 24th


Winnie Truong's larger-than-life portraits feature a drawn cast of characters displayed in all their hairy, heroic, glassy-eyed, gap-toothed glory. Executed with pencil crayon on paper, this work generates a dialogue on the beautiful and the beastly amidst contemporary concerns of the continued relevance of figurative art and portraiture, hyperrealist sculpture, and the impact of hair ornamentation.
