"Tropical Hot Dog Night / Like two flamingoes in a fruit fight / Like steppin’ out of a triangle / Into striped light / Striped light, striped light / Tropical Hot Dog Night / Everything’s wrong, at the same time it’s right”
- Don Van Vliet
Tropical Hotdog Night is a collection of exceptional artists whose work conveys the joyful absurdity of the human condition. Life is both ethereal and profane in equally disproportionate ratios. The meaning of our time in this topsy-turvy plane of existence is determined by the user. The guttural nature of the collective body of work acts as a reliquary for emotion and experience. The hand is strong, the mind frantic in its focus. Much like a hotdog the yield of these works — meaty and layered —resides under a slick, sometimes glossy surface.
