WHAAM! presents Life is Sick, a solo exhibition by Justin Hager, on view April 25–May 17, 2025. Hager’s vivid oil paintings depict fairytales colliding with reality, exploring dualities like good and evil through empathetic portrayals of outcasts and underdogs. His sculptural, hand-molded frames extend the narrative of each work, creating a unified experience that celebrates complexity, contradiction, and the expressive power of painting.
