My Heart Is A Beast is a collective fine arts exhibit featuring Brigette Romaker, Gavin Eveland, and Sheree Corniel. It is a unique show curated by all three artists and has been a year in the making. This show will feature art works, writings, and quotes exploring science, observation, imagination, expression, and the human condition.

Brigette Romaker creates paintings that rely on science as a way to filter, focus, and understand things she observes either through a rational lens or a more expressive lens filtered through imagination. Within this show, two groups of her studies include Trilobites/Animals and Creatures and
Dark Adaption.

Gavin Eveland is a figural painter who personifies and anthropomorphizes intense expressions. He disarticulates and juxtaposes human and animal figures into dynamic displays of vivacity and fireworks. Concerning this show, his theory is based on the Grotesque. Anthropomorphism of the beast is was with it from the beginning, as inspired by art found in Domus Aurea, a portico villa built by ancient Roman emperor Nero.

Sheree Corniel translates experiences and observations about life, psychology, and science, creating visual stories filled with elements of philosophy, mythology (particularly ancient Hawaiian legends), mysticism, and encounters with personal poetry. She has developed two main styles of work. One is focused on abstractive studies of rhythm and movement influenced by Futurism and the other style is influenced by street art and storybooks.
