Personal Hell (Don’t Look At Me)

Painter Luz Harmon reflects on identity and belonging through an engagement with anatomy and reconstructed memory. Inspired by Dante Alighieri’s epic poem The Divine Comedy, the exhibition focuses on the sins of the flesh by reducing figures to sinew, muscle, and bone, emphasizing internal visceral anatomy. Stripped of their skin, Harmon’s figures express desire and pleasure, and the corporeal contradictions of the body: vulnerability and power. Personal Hell (Don’t Look at Me) reflects on carnal desire, identity, and intimacy beyond socially coded or gendered expectations.
