$erious Topic$ presents Hook, Line and Sinker, a solo exhibition of new paintings and drawings by Aaron Maier-Carretero. Beginning with spontaneous doodles, Aaron develops bold forms that channel subconscious rhythms and emotional energy. Influenced by Barbara Rossi and the Chicago Imagists, his works layer strong lines with vibrant, unruly colors to create images that are strange yet familiar—playful, raw, and deeply human in their contradictions.
