Serious Play features the work of Flint artists Andy Hill, Timothy Kranz, and Sifus J. Thompson. Working in assemblage, drawing or painting materials, each approaches popular culture to explore their own identity through often familiar and loved images. Though whimsy may be an initial response to Robots, Star Wars, and Westerns, the artists are touching on relevant issues of a disposable culture, isolation, and identity in pop culture.
