Meta-Morphosis 
By Baghead

BH: I bought a “solid project truck” during the pandemic, until the engine gave out on me shortly after. I dealt with a lot of uncertainty, financial and professional insecurities all while sheltered at home. I felt mentally and physically stuck in that time and place for what seemed like forever. Instinctively I dove deeper into my practice and out of that came Cyduck, a boundless character from the future, backed up by few guardian dogs. 

This piece depicts that time and place when dealing with adversity. Two Easter eggs within the piece include a self portrait of myself behind the steering wheel. The second is the actual sound of the new engine in my now running truck.

Known for his background in graphic design, wooden sculptures, installations and murals, Baghead adopts this new platform to animate his characters from another universe. Re-emerging animal symbolisms including canines, ducks, and snakes implies BH’s grapple with fears, a nostalgic homage, and his willingness to evolve.
