The best things in life come in threes, and on September 25, Corey Helford Gallery is proud to launch its fall exhibition schedule with new works by a trio of major female talents: Korin Faught, Krista Huot and Mia. For the show, each artist presents her unique voice with a collection of stunning new works, continuing to define the brilliant landscape of New Fine Art scene.

As summer transitions into fall, Korin Faught’s elegantly moody beach series presents the ideal escape for her signature style of double visions. Known for her precise attention to styling and fabrics, the Los Angeles artist unveils a new collection of relaxed glamour for this significant new exhibition at Corey Helford Gallery. Her capricious muses enjoy the sun and sand, yet danger looms ahead. Faught notes, “Unease surrounds the brightly colored, bird-like women. They are innocent and unwitting victims who perch on the edge of peril, easily consumed by looming night.”

Montreal artist Krista Huot creates whimsical narratives where sparkling nymphs command center stage against an enchanting backdrop of dark shadows. Taking inspiration from the environment, Huot’s new series of works is populated with fairies and mystical creatures, representing humanity’s connection with nature. And for her second exhibition with Corey Helford Gallery, Huot extends her environmental focus to her materials, employing a unique collection of eco-friendly walnut oils to bring her fairytales to life.

Returning to Corey Helford for her third major exhibition at the gallery, Los Angeles artist Mia explores visibility and invisibility, darkness and light and what it means to truly see. Mia notes “all individuals contain an entire universe within them, which is invisible to the naked eye,” and her new collection of visionary acrylic paintings concentrates on giving shape to the unseen forces within her subjects. Mia’s works are populated with graceful mystery, powerful symbolism, and dreamy narratives creating a rich inner-landscape of identity and mythology for her characters that reaches far beyond what the human eye can see.

Open to the public, the reception will take place on Saturday, September 25 from 7 to 10pm, and the show will be on view until October 16, 2010.
