A Mixed-Media Installation by Sean Paul Gallegos, Stations of the Lost explores the growing disconnect from traditional religious iconography and belief systems in modern culture. Inspired by the biblical Stations of the Cross, Gallegos’ fourteen stations become interactive meditations on our obsessions with material goods and commercial icons. He explores and unpacks how the traditional ‘sacred’ is being replaced with kitsch, toys and profit icons elevating them as objects of adoration and desire.

*Show has been extended until March 8th, 2012 ending with a closing reception from 6-9pm in association with Armory Week. http://www.armoryartsweek.com/armoryarts/index.cfm/home/public-events/public-events3/
