“The Time Has Come.”


Oakland artists Billy Kroft and Tracy Timmins exhibit paintings, which depict a drastic epilogue to contemporary American civilization.

Tracy Timmins paints abandoned buildings existing in familiar natural landscapes such as deserts, mountains, and rivers. The ruins have become reclaimed by the structure’s immediate surroundings.
The inhabitants appear to have been replaced by animals such as deer, wild dogs, and birds wandering around and throughout the assembled rubble. Her paintings reflect an investigation through the passage of time, which reveals hope that nature will free itself if it can survive humankind.

Billy Kroft’s apocalyptic paintings reflect the loss of the individualist amid the advancement of technology, consumerism and greed in American Society. They demonstrate his challenging convictions that we as consumers incite our own demise. The people, which appear in his paintings, are being ruled and manipulated by machines, money, and devices seemingly beyond their control.
