Junkyard Kids

It is a colorful display of re-purposed quirky objects at 254 Newbury St. brought by Junkyard Kids.At the entrance of the already pompous Newbury St. there is a black horse almost symbolic of elegant horse carriages of another era. Overall, the art created by a group of Mass Art students seems to be inspired by royalty with period furniture pieces twisted and embellished. The colors pop and there are lots of cute little domes and unicorns on pedestals atop fireplaces. The showcase seems to be a modern take or a deconstruction of a proper society which has turned hip, and eclectic. There is also an array of collages which seem to manifest the personality of its artists with newspaper cut outs, and album covers like black flag with unexpected add-ons giving them a uniqueness,and a hint to the character of the creators. Head out and see the exhibition before it comes to its end on Dec 16th.
