A NEW KIND OF BEAUTY — Phillip Toledano

Opening Reception: Wednesday, September 8, 6:00pm—8:00pm

Brought together for the first time as a solo exhibition, these breathtaking and provocative portraits depict people who have reconfigured their bodies by means of extensive plastic surgery. The photographs raise questions about self-perception and social paragons relating to what constitutes perceived notions of beauty.

Last Day at LMCC

I have finally come to terms with the realization that my Workspace residency at LMCC is now over. I have completely packed and moved out and its finally hitting me that I won't be back in my beautiful studio on Monday. It was so good while it lasted. These past nine months have been so fruitful and I feel so blessed to have been a part of the program. Many thanks to LMCC's Melissa Levin and Sean Carroll for all of their hard work and dedication and to my fellow residents for inspiring me with their work and gracing me with their time and friendship which I treasure. Above is the last still life I shot in my studio.
