London-based artist Opake creates vibrant works that resonate especially with those feeling nostalgic for the “good old days” while trying to adjust to modern norms. But then the chaos also evokes smiles. Stop by West Chelsea Contemporary (wcc.art) from March 8 to April 6 to interact with nearly two dozen of his paintings and sculptures, displayed alongside works by Bosnian-born photographer Haris Nukem.
