HERE Will Present Kalan Sherrard's KOSMOS INVERS: THE MORPHOLOGY OF XOS
by Chloe Rabinowitz

KOSMOS INVERS is the creation of two inverse planets filled with bizarre otherworldly puppets: one, an Edenic parallel of our green earth; and the other, its tentacled pink opposite. Strange fragments of stories coalesce through the contours of different biomes piecing together a patchwork of utopian armageddon and weird psychological metaphors with a green cosmic bent.
