Beauty in art is subjective – that’s what FCKART (a.k.a. Kevin Jacob) conveys in his exhibit being displayed at BOOM Concepts this month. The Beautiful Ugly exhibit-goers have a chance to participate in a Q&A with the artist, to discuss his methods and inspirations for the pieces. Using a variety of tools from cotton to cardboard to his own hands, Jacob has created a series of works that display beautiful figures in unflattering and ugly forms, forcing those who view it to question and explore their own understanding of what is beautiful and what is ugly. -Lauren Ortego
