Sally Davies
2nd Street
2000
Laminated digital ink jet photograph

38.5 x 30 "


Gracie Mansion Gallery

REVIEW Gracie Mansion remains open by appointment through these last few weeks of summer, and if you hurry you can see Sally Davies' hilarious and colorful photographic dioramas. She builds meticulously decorated domestic sets and fills them with dark-eyed, green-skinned alien figures dressed up as shopaholic consumers, yuppie couples and housewives resplendent in plaid jumpers.

Davies has met the aliens -- and they are us. They live in fashionable lofts, drink Mountain Dew and even show up at the odd gallery opening. Her works are a colorful and comic photographic amalgamation of Jeff Wall, Tina Barney and the X-files. (Calvin Reid, "The East Village Revisited," Artnet, August 2000)
