The Dark and the Wounded at The Drift
FILM STARTS AT 4PM SHARP
To become great, you must have a vision, courage and tenacity. Master Painter James Picard embodies all three in this defining chapter of his illustrious career. After exhibiting worldwide in a career that spans close to four decades, his new series takes us on a unsettling yet eye opening journey. The disturbing message and dark undertone of this painting series leads him to be rejected from the galleries where he usually displays his work. Determined to share his art and his message, Picard sets plans in motion to exhibit the series in a new way. In an unprecedented move, he forces his way into the places no one else wants to goabandoned prisons, vacant asylums long left to rot will become the backdrop for his new work. The Dark and the Wounded.
But entering these unearthly ruins proves to be more difficult than he could have ever imagined He bends the rules. He trespasses. He writes a fake movie. He does whatever he needs to do to get in. Gaining momentum, hes got only one thing on his mind
Alcatraz Prison.
"The Dark and The Wounded series is not only about the consequences of a wounded and dark soul. It is about knowing that we all suffer, and that through compassion and awareness, for ourselves and others, we can heal our wounds. This in turn can heal ourselves, our families, our society, and the world in which we all live.
