About Chaos Theory
Sourced from anonymous photos or the carefully staged sets she builds, Mercedes Helnwein's subject matter appears innocent, with scenes of suburban American adolescence and family life, but contain a tension that borders on menace. With a limited palette, she brings certain elements to the fore, buffing out some faces and connecting others with streaks of color, to emphasize potential actors or connections among those assembled.
