PEREGRINE HONIG

Peregrine Honig’s work is delicate and disturbing – deceptively simple executions of complicated subjects. Honig’s line documents early sexual awakenings, the visual manifestation of disease, and the social anxieties of realized and fictional characters. By illustrating stifled habits, residual adolescent vulnerability, and issues of beauty and popularity, Honig’s imagery documents trends in fear, private and public, commercial and independent.

Rendering the progress of innocence into awareness, her work chronicles the beauty of awkward moments. We are captivated by the resilience of our own virgin selves and beguiled by the lure of shameless sensuality. Honig’s work is an ongoing dictionary of intimate scenarios, inviting viewers to observe without the fear of trespassing or offending.
