So in Tempe Towne Marketplace there is a store front called "The Night Gallery" It is a facility that is used to showcase student works from ASU. A lot of the time they will have "established" Phoenix artists share the gallery space with the student work in order to get more people to come in and see the shows and to hopefully get more revenue. The shows are free but there is a donation jar in the front.
The following is from a show that is still up (it's been up for awhile now in the back) and it is by Nathanial Lewis and called "Bigger Than You" According to his blog this was his Thesis show for ASU.
here a couple links to him and his work: Blogspot Blog and Art Site
A side note: My photos don't really do his work justice. I only usually have my phone on me, so all of these pics are taken on my Droid.
Now on to the show!

You know, I saw these before, and they're still both cute and deeply disturbing. Pretty sure that is what makes this work so well.
