A disembodied, boneless hand by Brooklyn artist Genesis Belanger is equal parts attractive and creepy, part of a table-top arrangement of stoneware sculpture that includes a languid cigarette, two partially consumed Pink Lady apples and a lamp with a severely pinched-waist. Part of Nathalie Karg Gallery’s summer group show ‘Distortions,’ Belanger’s sculpture provocatively blurs the line between human bodies, food and consumer objects in what the New Yorker proffered as ‘funny-pages Surrealism.’ (On view on the Lower East Side through August 15th).
