Mark Ryden returns to Los Angeles for an exhibition of new works titled Eye Am at Perrotin's Pico gallery space. An image linked to the exhibition prominently features a yam-like motif. The Hebrew word yam translates as sea, evoking notions of vastness, divine power, and chaos. The imagery therefore carries potential double meanings between literal tubers and biblical sea symbolism. The exhibition opening is scheduled for Halloween Eve, a timing that may amplify uncanny or symbolic readings of the works. The combination of Pop Surrealism, iconography, and timing foregrounds layered interpretation.
