It’s a bit hard to communicate the surreal strangeness and pleasures of this video installation by Rebecca Burch (an occasional blog contributor to this blog), titled “Peeps Gone Wild.” But it featured marshmallow peeps doing a strip-tease, chick-on-chick action (or peep-on-peep, to be specific) as well as chicks aflame. The work was one of several that were part of the one-day “Peep Show” exhibit during the May 17 ArtWalk in Charleston, an exhibit at the Good News Garage space on Hale Street pulled together by artist Amy Williams. Artists were invited to contribute works on the theme of either marshmallow peeps or the phenomenom of the peep show itself (as in Keith Allen’s painting below). Watch for Burch’s video on this blog soon.
