Kirsty Black's vibrant exhibition, "Critter Masquerade," transforms canvasses into fictional realms where expressive brush strokes set the stage for delightful animal antics and anthropomorphic revelry. These paintings act as gateways to a parallel world, where imagined creatures mirror the rich tapestry of human traits. Each gestural stroke and splash of layered hues contributes to the Critter Masquerade narrative, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a joyous escapade of colors and shapes that reflect the vivacity of the animal kingdom.

The titles of each work offer hints at the unfolding scenes during the painting process, as the artist crafts the setting for the story to unfold. Accompanied by a narrative, each piece encourages viewers to expand on or create their own stories.

In works like "Caterpillar Fiesta," where party-goers don vibrant stripes and outrageous sombreros, eagerly queuing up to take a swing at the mulberry piñatas, Kirsty extends an invitation to embark on an adventure. Here, the traditional boundaries between human and animal relationships blur, as imagination takes center stage. Kirsty invites viewers to pick up the thread of a story, imagining the shenanigans that animals partake when our backs are turned. In this fictional realm, the viewer becomes a co-creator, weaving imaginative tales that extend beyond the confines of reality.
