Carmen D'Apollonio I'm not a Shrimp furniture wooden lamp exhibition

I’m Not a Shrimp is Carmen D’Apollonio’s first solo gallery exhibition in Los Angeles. Highlighting the intuitive, self-taught approach and the tongue-in-cheek sensibility that defines her practice, I’m Not a Shrimp represents an adventure with new typologies and more complex compositions in clay and bronze. Bringing together works into a surrealist landscape, each piece is personified with its own stand-alone narrative through familiar organic forms.

As a sculptor, D’Apollonio communicates her mindset and personal observations on everyday life with spontaneity and relentless energy. The exhibition includes a series of floral vessels that reflect what she refers to as her “romantic side.” Emphasizing her recent experiments with gesture and materiality, Carmen D’Apollonio: I’m Not a Shrimp debuts a series of contoured lights that float in unpredictable ways around a wooden structure—exploring the interplay between positive and negative space.“I love shrimp. And these pieces remind me of shrimp—how they are curved downwards like a tail,” says D’Apollonio.
