“The Monsters We Sometimes Become” at Shaw Center for the Arts
BATON ROUGE (press release) – Ellemnop.Art will present “The Monsters We Sometimes Become,” a multimedia art exhibition featuring the original works of artist Nathaniel A.J. Landry.
Ellemnop.Art is a Baton Rouge-based arts collective dedicated to connecting artists and audiences through innovative exhibitions, pop-ups, community activations and multimedia collaborations.
The immersive exhibition experience for “The Monsters We Sometimes Become” is Saturday, June 13, from 5 to 10:30 p.m. at Manship Gallery inside the Shaw Center for the Arts.
The exhibition includes an original musical score and live performance by Monoblack.
Organizers share that, curated by Ellemnop.Art, the exhibition explores the complexities of human emotion, identity, transformation and vulnerability through visually stunning artwork paired with bespoke music compositions.
Each piece by Landry is accompanied by a unique audio element by Monoblack, creating a guided walk enhanced through sound and imagery.
In addition to the visual and audio encounter, guests will be led through “The Choice,” an interactive portion of the exhibit that presents two final artworks and soundscapes representing “The Reconcile” and “The Monster.” Visitors must choose one path, creating a personalized narrative within the experience.
“The Monsters We Sometimes Become” seeks to challenge visitors to confront the dualities within themselves–the fears, transformations and internal battles that shape the human experience.
After the exhibition, attendees are invited to explore Monster Confessional Portals, socialize with fellow art lovers, enjoy food and beverages and experience a live performance by Monoblack.
A limited-edition vinyl soundtrack of the exhibit, featuring 17 original songs, poems and prints, is also available for purchase.
