Jason Villegas returns to Okay Mountain with Impish Animal, once again immersing us through works on paper, sculpture and installation into a primordial sea of frenetic mutation and unrelenting consumption. Using the images and icons of both high and low consumer culture , Villegas re-imagines them with all the idealized noble qualities they attempt to encapsulate as well as the less glorified aspects of nature still intact. These bizarre creatures run amok, acting out a vicious free market battle, devouring, multiplying and destroying each other in an epic struggle for dominance.
