Sam Hundley News

May 31 - Aug. 18: The Can Foundation Presents ASSEMBLE, a group exhibition featuring Wade Mickley, Karen Freidt and Sam Hundley – at Assembly, 400 Granby Street, Norfolk, VA. – I'll have a bunch of new work on exhibit. Thrilled to be associated with CAN and my talented friends, Karen and Wade. Opening reception was May 31 and it was fun to see all the doodlers there, especially Rick Nickel and Christopher Revel.

With artist pals Karen Freidt and Wade Mickley next to one of Wade's amazing assemblages. You can see Karen's astounding work below.
Sam Hundley
Starting at the 4th floor and walking down, you can see "Jaded Panhandler" and "Mr President," a spoof of Biden.
4th floor
The "Highway Patrolman" was inspired by "Psycho" and the sculpture of Trump began with a sculptor's wood scraps.
Mr. Potato Head
The burlap and wallpaper brush came from the same store, so I think it was predetermined.
The landing
"Slats" is made from a louvered door that was whitewashed and a bit of gingerbread from a local salvager.
Karen Freidt
Karen explained this first larger piece as being about the feeling she gets when an idea takes flight.
So much energy
Karen describes herself as a bit of a "SPAZ," but it just means she has boundless creative energy and humor.
Wild wall
I could stand and gape at his wall for hours.
Hark! Bob Goulet!
What I'd intended to be a Herald Angel became Robert Goulet, so that's what this is.
Wade Mickley
Wade is incredibly meticulous in his craftsmanship but we share the same aesthetic – a love of decay.
Serene groove
Wade is a deep thinker and I love his use of lo-tech 45s mixed with smooth modern surfaces and rusty tin.
