ABOUT:
Oopsy Daisy: Technicolor Ends Here, a vibrant exhibition that explores the delicate interplay of color, artistic practice, and the inherent beauty of failure and reduction. This exhibition unveils Griffin's latest body of work, a celebration of process and creative resilience—where the highs of technicolor brilliance meet the quiet, reflective moments of simplicity and restraint.

In Oopsy Daisy, Griffin brings forward a layered narrative of experience and experimentation, where each piece reveals a journey through bold colors and measured reduction, stripping down complex ideas to their elemental forms. The works delve into the creative process and Griffin's lived experience as an artist, laying bare the art of “failure” as an essential path to discovery and growth. Known for tackling themes of identity and introspection, Griffin employs color not only as a medium but as a storyteller in itself, articulating moments of both high intensity and graceful limitation.

Oopsy Daisy: Technicolor Ends Here is an invitation to embrace the messiness of the creative journey. By leaning into the perceived missteps and “oopsies” of practice, Griffin reminds us that in art, as in life, technicolor beauty often lies just beneath the surface of imperfection.
