Lizards Live

Lizards Live is the local solo debut of Washington, D.C., artist Lisa Marie Thalhammer, a visual artist whose work dissects traditional notions of gender, identity and sexuality. The pieces displayed in Lizards Live specifically draw on Thalhammer's experience as a young girl growing up in the male-dominated environs of her family's truck plaza. Drawing on iconic images of beautiful women draped across sports cars, she positions women with jumbled body parts — legs where the torso should be, arms missing — on the hoods of semis. In other paintings, brightly colored shooting stars project from the heads of these lizard-like women, symbols of beauty chopped up and reassembled. On display through Nov. 28, at the Butcher's Daughter, 22747 Woodward Ave., Ste. 201, Ferndale; 248-808-6536.
