Crudely Stamp’d & Half Made Up

Brendan MacAllister & Isaac Kim ‘25

June 23rd - July 19th

Hours: Wed - Sat, 12-6pm

Reception: Friday, July 18th, 6-9pm

Easthaus has collaborated with 49 Oak and is proud to present Crudely Stamp’d & Half Made Up. This two person exhibition by Brendan MacAllister & Isaac Kim MFA ‘25 highlights wall based and sculptural objects of intense emotion taking shape as fantastical worlds, ubiquitous freaks, and intimate storytelling. Rooted in the fantastical, these works brush up against the threads of truth; resulting in personally intimate tales that may be more real than our contemporary world.
