Phaiz, Chicagoʼs emerging cutting-edge exposition space, is proud to present Opera Pink, a sitespecific solo installation by San Francisco-based artist Richard Colman. This is the artistʼs first solo exhibition with Phaiz and first in Chicago. Filling the 800 square foot gallery, Colman will install a series of tiles and paintings on wood panels and paper complemented by background wall paintings, creating a large-scale, psychedelic-type landscape mural to indulge the senses.

Richard’s work appears along side Faisal Mohyuddin’s story Leaving India.
