BRAIN BONE BLOOD is a solo exhibition by DS Kinsel that presents a collection of artifacts exploring abstracted anatomy, jujuism, and the amalgamation of identities.

BRAIN BONE BLOOD primarily presents a wide ranging set of canvas paintings depicting bold epicene forms. Each work presents a unique subject experiencing dissection, forcing an act of sacrifice of these unfamiliar bodies across diptychs, triptychs, and quadriptych. Bold brush strokes, text based pattern, and intense surface texture are the most present feature paintings by Kinsel. BRAIN BONE BLOOD not only acts as a title for this collection, but a sacred hymn repeated across the paintings in the act of spellcasting. Turning these obvious art objects into totems that display easily accessible conjurations of an unknown magic. Entirely new, this collection of paintings has never been shown publicly. All artworks will be available for purchase and acquisition.

The additional artifacts featured in the exhibition serve as totems that demonstrate a symphony of personal stories of dissection. Reflecting the various ideas, techniques, and physical experiences held inside our BRAIN BONE and BLOOD.

The 707 Gallery, located on a business block street level in the Cultural District, is an intimate and immersive space that often features work from Pittsburgh-based artists. Its large window looking out in the bustling 8th Street block of Penn Avenue provides a wonderful canvas of all downtown Pittsburgh has to offer with exhibitions that explore the limits of creative expression, presentation, and interpretation of various art forms.
