Gallivanter
Zalucky Contemporary 

January 28th - February 25th, 2023

Gallivanter embodies a temperament of misbehavior and disobedience in the pursuit of thrills, leisure and excitement. From nighttime activities (dancing, joyrides and secret rendezvous) to the mythologic creatures that move about the darkness (banshees, werewolves, arachnids), Ocampo composes scenes that allude to living recklessly, wickedly, and with abandon.

Since the act of ‘gallivanting’ mostly occurs under the cloak of darkness - here, night and it’s shadowy visage become the backdrop to these atemporal tableaus. Gallivanter draws parallels between anxiety, affection, anger, and adrenaline: Sensations that are entangled throughout moments of defiant bliss in bad influence, scorching through the night, wishing to never return home again.
