Inky Dreadfuls at Corey Helford Gallery

01 Mechanaphobia 72

18 Foibles The Fickle Little Mistress

Michael Mararian has a new show of his macabre, mischievous, and darkly comedic Inky Dreadfuls opening this Saturday, July 19, at the Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City, CA. The exhibition, titled "Phobia, Foibles & Fiends," runs until August 9. (Also showing are Tiffany Liu and Krista Huot.) Mararian doesn't just use magic markers. He is one. From the show description:

Featuring over thirty macabre ink renderings, his new body of work is a dark comedy of psychological fears, character flaws and complexes of the human id. Using black India ink, archival brush pens and rapidographs, Mararian continues to create narratives that transform traditionally cheerful images and concepts into frightening yet humorous tableaus.
