3 days agoBackrooms review Kane Parsons' icily disturbing horror rewrites the genre rulebook
People trapped in memory and distorted present realities discover an endless backrooms network that prevents escape.
As we spend much of our lives online and find ourselves ensnared in an increasingly dystopian reality, glitches and fractures seem all the more apt in rendering the contemporary mind. Kat Kristof ( previously) attends to this disjointed-and even duplicitous-feeling in her vivid portraiture. Visible brushstrokes invoke gestures past and the memories that scaffold our lives, while layered patches build upon one another, forming complex structures within each piece.
