"WESTERN PLEASURE" will be a spectacular art installation for the exit show of 2011 Pratt Institute MFA Candidate, Amanda Sullivan.

The highly anticipated MFA Thesis Show "Western Pleasure" is sure to be quite the spectacle.  It will consist of a room lined with tri-panel fitting room style mirrors each separated by a vertical strip of vanity lights.  Inside the space there will be four life size gold glitter covered horses that have been nearly a year in the making!  Check out the "Works in Progress" page at amandasullivan.net to see how the process unfolds.  These horses are the Four Horses of the Apocalypse, manifest in several ways through the artist's imagination.  With 2012 fast approaching, this show will hope to give light to the present conditions believed to be contributing to a general, but glamorized, demise.

Thanks so much for your support!
