Vintage, mass-produced porcelain knick-knacks take on new life in Debra Broz<\/a>\u2019s intricate and uncanny hybrids (previously<\/a>). Collies and St. Bernards with the bodies of pheasants meet rabbits with curiously long appendages and woodland creatures with human arms.<\/p>\n In her solo exhibition Strange World <\/em>at Track 16<\/a>, Broz continues to explore the subversive and absurd through the leitmotif of midcentury kitsch. Whether merging two small sculptures or creating elaborate amalgamations, the artist finds the humor\u2014and just a tinge of unease\u2014in busyness, cuteness, and perplexity.<\/p>\n
