Night Terror

In Alison's life, color has always been a way to express feelings. She wants people to understand that using the vocal fold for communicating is not necessary; the non-verbal behavior increases the bond between people and is an intimate way of communicating with each other. As such, Zukies are mysterious characters that do not talk; they have thought bubbles and facial expressions. Zukies are about color. Zukies intend to generate emotions through their visual thoughts and thats how they create that bond with us. myplasticheart presents When Hell Freezes Over 2 a group exhibition featuring custom one-of-a-kind pieces based on Lou Pimentel’s original character – Junior.
