Description
Artist Lisandro Rome Perez presents "Toilet Train" series,a peek through the bathroom keyhole, in the "Crossing Borders"
group show at Femina Potens gallery. The exhibition includes several of his new colorful paintings in acrylics and oils, and will be featured from July 5 through July 27, 2008.
The "Toilet Train" series examines the outcomes of rigid
societal restrictions and expectations placed on children during theAnal Phase of development. This is a peek through the bathroom keyhole; a look at erotic fascinations, self censorship, and adult coping tools used to achieve balance between the needs of the self and social acceptance. Lisandro Rome Perez incorporates idealized fairytale imagery to represent what society believes children should be:good,clean,
polite, subservient. Many are images from the storybooks that he grew up with that illustrated outmoded methods of teaching
control to children.
