"Cold Front presents new work by Trey Abdella that examines how ceremony, tradition, and commercialization intersect within the visual language of winter. In works that merge hyperreal figuration with resin, glitter, and lenticular surfaces, Abdella stages scenes where warmth and danger coexist. Through layered, mixed-media compositions, he reflects on the seasonal performance of comfort and festivity, tracing how sentiment, excess, and artificiality intertwine."

Cold Front presents new work that examines how ceremony, tradition, and commercialization intersect within the visual language of winter. The works merge hyperreal figuration with resin, glitter, and lenticular surfaces to stage scenes where warmth and danger coexist. Layered, mixed-media compositions reflect on the seasonal performance of comfort and festivity, tracing how sentiment, excess, and artificiality intertwine. The exploration of American visual culture reveals ritual and spectacle in consumer culture smoothing over what is tender, anxious, or strange and leaving emotion caught beneath a surface sheen.
