The In-Between Worlds of Larissa Borteh

Hyperallergic reviews Larissa Borteh's solo exhibition "In the Wind" at Devening Projects in Chicago, featuring a dozen oil paintings that blur the line between still life and ethereal abstraction. The works, including "Glass House" (2025) and "Tending and Receiving" (2026), use thinned, viscous oil paint to create tactile surfaces that evoke plants in decay, ghosts, deities, or dreamlike visions. The review highlights Borteh's distinctive merging of image and elongated mark, reminiscent of fingerpainting, and her exploration of the spectrum between legibility and opacity.

Miami Graffiti Legend Eric Alan Hirt "Eson" Killed in Train Strike

Eric Alan Hirt, known as "Eson," a legendary Miami graffiti artist and member of the Miami Style Gods (MSG) crew, was struck and killed by a Brightline passenger train on May 13 near his home in North Miami. The 47-year-old was walking along the tracks in a designated "quiet zone" where trains do not sound horns; his wife noted he was partially deaf. Hirt gained widespread attention through a 2018 VICE documentary, where he was shown risking his life to tag highways and infrastructure, and openly embraced the label of "vandal." His death marks at least the 206th fatal Brightline strike since 2017, a line previously called the country's most fatal by the Associated Press.
