Good Mother Gallery presents Ornamental Anger, a solo exhibition by Los Angeles artist and special effects pioneer Gabe Bartalos. Working at the intersection of sculpture, cinema, and surrealism, Bartalos is known for creating grotesque creatures for cult films such as Basket Case, collaborating with Matthew Barney on The Cremaster Cycle, and designing transformative prosthetics for artists including David Byrne and St. Vincent. Blending dark humor, technical mastery, and a fiercely DIY sensibility, his work transforms obsession into vividly unsettling forms.
