Goldish Oasis presents "Side Effects", an art installation by Sam HEYDT

Goldish Oasis is pleased to present a temporary art installation by artist Sam Heydt.   On view at their Faena Bazaar location through May 2019, the installation is comprised of lightboxex, dioramas, photography, found object interventions and direct animation films.

[about the installation] Through movie imagery, war photography and vintage advertisement, this installation takes the self-deception of the post-war American middle class – i.e., the narrative created by tabloids, television, and cinema – as a leading motive, and sidesteps into iconographically related themes. By combining images of destruction and disaster with images portraying the virtues and ideals of the 1950’s, Heydt confronts the American Dream with the ecological nightmare advanced industrialization is responsible for.
