Return of the Juicy "Salon Series": Doug Rhodehamel's "Migration 4"

On Thursday, July 2nd, 2009, Juicy Temples and the Shoot Studio are proud to be hosting an installation by the Orlando artist, Doug Rhodehamel. Many in Central Florida have at some point seen Doug's installation/yard art where he places a multitude of paper-bag mushrooms in the front yards of unexpecting residents—and we're hoping that this little installation will evoke a similar delight in visitors.

The Migration series—installations of hundreds of tiny four-legged creatures made from matchsticks—has been well-received in the past and this time around, Doug is introducing a new concept..."Hammerhead Cows". Now, the artist has taken to utilizing the matchbook itself in an origami-like fashion to craft an entirely new "herd" of interesting creatures.

Along with the Migration, Doug is also hanging a series of paintings called "Fostercows". These adorable cow-mutations are going to also be available on limited edition posters which will be available during the show.

The installation is a one-night-only event. However, you are welcome to stop by afterward to view the Fostercows series—which will continue to hang here at the studio for the following 2 weeks.

Download and print the event invite here.
Here's a quick link to the Google map.

Please join us on July 2nd, from 7pm to 11pm, for a casual get-together. We'll be serving beans and weenies (or some variation thereof) and we'll also encourage you to take a stroll across the street to grab a sip o' somethin at Stardust...oh yeah, and you gotta stop in to Bold Hype gallery to check out the freakish art of our good friend Scott Scheidly!)
