"Oddfellows" by Chet Zar x Doktor A @ Stranger Factory (May 3)

PRESS: "Oddfellows" is a collection of new character work by UK artist and steampunk aficionado Doktor A, and dark art monster-maker Chet Zar. Oddfellows is an expression of how despite their vastly differing styles, both Chet Zar and Dok A are essentially doing the same thing – using inhuman forms to illustrate the human condition. In spite of their gas-mask faces or giant mechanical moustaches, each artists creations are, at heart, just regular joes with lives, wants, dreams of their own. By using non-human characters, each artist is able to force the viewer to focus less on the superficiality of human form and bias and more on the details of each character’s existence."


Always a treat when we get to see works from Doktor A, and as well the intensity of Chet Zar always blazes the way to a eye-eravication (which I am totally down for). Shown above is a peek at a collaborative piece between both gentlemen, while below shows some teasers for what to expect from Doktor A. "Oddfellows" opens May 3rd at Stranger Factory, and exhibits thru June 2nd, 2013.
