The project features Royal College of Art alum [Marie Jacotey](https://www.instagram.com/mariejacotey/?hl=en), as she confronts the autobiographical “with a wry sense of humor and irony, most often featuring female protagonists, alone or with others, and at times with accompanying text.” The text and images tell a very 21st-century female narratives that are close to the west coast punk aesthetic. For the exhibit in New York Jacotey will be showing a recent body of work with an increasing role of pattern and floral motifs that will cover the drawings. * * * The exhibit will be on view though March 15 | 57 Orchard Street, NY (Pablo’s Birthday Gallery)
