BLINK, CINCINNATI
by Swoon
I’ll confess, I always have mixed feelings about wheatpaste, especially when I see an artist’s images too often repeated in completely different contexts . . . but Swoon’s hauntingly beautiful portraits of humanity can soften even the harshest critic and when I see new work from her I fall in love with her work all over. For Cincinnati’s inaugural Blink Festival in 2017 Caledonia Curry, aka Swoon installed a series of five pieces—including new work and some of her socially-driven projects from Haiti and Kenya—in Over-the-Rhine that Cincinnati’s @Enquirer called their favorite of the festival. This work is off of Elm St just north of Findlay Market. @swoonhq @BlinkCincinnati @streetartcities
