About the Item

Artist: Hunter Potter Title: When Hell Freezes Over Medium: Oil on Drop Cloth Size: 60 x 70 Inches Year: 2022 Notes: Featured at his Solo show at Primary, Miami FL 2022 Dating back to the 16th century, crime pamphlets, ballads, and trial accounts have captivated the interest of literate individuals from the artisan class. These unsettling narratives were often embraced as a means to quench common curiosity and gain a deeper understanding of the malevolence lurking in society. What dwells in the shadows, in that realm where temptation and virtue collide? Through the prism of True Crime, Hunter Potter delves into the internal conflicts of individuals, meditates on goodwill, and hones his ability to distinguish the wicked from the virtuous. As Potter aptly puts it, "Jesus walked on water, and the devil built a boat. Only one was a miracle, but both of them could float." He expounds, "When these two enigmatic forces materialize on the same tranquil lake, inviting you for a swim, it becomes imperative to differentiate between them." For Potter, the connection with True Crime literature transcends mere words. It represents a profound immersion into American culture and his familial heritage. These narratives compel individuals to seek illumination in the darkest of times, recognizing that light and darkness are inextricably intertwined. He ponders, "I wonder, how does one overcome the devil? To deny its existence is an exercise in futility. The realm of adversity is pervasive, and the journey uphill is fraught with challenges. But one persists. Godspeed!" - Source: Primary

Maybe the horrendous can be okay?
By Jenny Day
Located in New Orleans, LA
Retreating from the stress and chaos of the last year, I created another landscape; populated by an army of friendly creatures. Here the burdens of coronavirus, climate change, and political division are dismissed by hot pink kittens that arc gracefully through meter showers and owls that bury into beds of daffodils. In this place worry is edged out by the fantastic and mystical snails trail neon candy canes through the scorched earth. The apocalyptic is supplanted by the surreal and the allegorical. Anxiety followed me. The escapist reflects and distorts its shadow world, the real, a funhouse mirror...
