The Paramour Estate presents They Always Appear, Tallulah Dirnfeld's debut show. The collection of oil paintings explores the ways childhood memories, both nostalgic and traumatic, can distort with age. The macabre becomes comforting, and the enchanting turns frightening. The subjects of the paintings nestle up with nightmares and examine their own reflections. Figures are lonely, even when surrounded by madness. The Artist draws upon her own background working on horror films constructing scenes and cinematic compositions that walk the line uncannily between soothing and haunting. Horror seeps through the edges of her canvases and storytelling is as vital to every piece as image making in The Tallulahverse.
