"Defiled" features the work of two Washington D.C. based artists, Dana Ellyn and Matt Sesow, a couple whose respective works speak the language of the 21st Century American political consciousness fluently, although through vastly differing stylistic approaches. Sesow has been called an “outsider artist,” having been self-taught with no traditional artistic training, while Ellyn received training in the fine arts at George Washington University. The keystone of the exhibition is the Defiled series of collaborative paintings which express their political messages with particular potency through an aesthetic merger of academy and colloquialism.
