Suzanne Kaufman and Karin Yamagiwa have enormous imaginations. They have developed a series of highly stylized characters, anthropomorphized animals and food particles with bizarre habits that represent both the sweet and dark misfit in all of us. Paintings on wood, canvas, and paper in two and three dimensions explore themes of innocence, loss, love, kinship and alienation.

Kaufman’s works are soft with a muted palate while Yamagiwa incorporates bold lines and solid colors to shape the contours of her figures. Together, their characters create a harmonious balance. They are cute and non-threatening, but at the same time, possess an adult sophistication.

In this show their characters seem to go looking’ for love in all the wrong places!
