As expected, Matt Stallings put together an incredible collection of new work for his latest solo exhibition, After the Bomb Popped, at Subtext now through January 10th, 2010. If you didn’t get a chance to see the show, email us here and make an appointment, because there’s lot’s of great pieces left. More about the show, and photos of opening night after the jump.

About the Show:
This December, Subtext invites you to come experience a post nuclear world of skewed reality by San Diego’s own Matt Stallings. In After the Bomb Popped, Stallings has conceived an altered world where candy and popsicles have come to life. Icons of pop culture are turned upside down and inside out. Michael Jackson has become a monkey, Mickey Mouse is now a pig, polar bears are hunted for their Icee juice, — there’s even a chocolate Jesus. For his first solo exhibition at Subtext, Matt (interviewed here)has created an all but normal body of pop surrealism at it’s finest.

    Dave Brown’s expression pretty much sums up the entire show. Happy Psy-Op, Ice-Pop Holidays! Skiirt. Don’t pass up this one.

    Thanks to everyone at the gallery. I am honored to have my first solo exhibition at Subtext. High fives and low fives in a semi circle of love.
