Painting over photographs — both appropriated and produced by the artist herself — of biker chicks, cowboys, lovers paddling a canoe, sports cars, beach babes in miniskirts, and oh-so-many palm trees, all of it mounted on corrugated cardboard and laced together with webs of string art, glitter rainbows and beaded diamonds, Cromarty offers a view of America borrowed from Richard Prince but given a whole different spin of both indulgence and dread. Like her installation including a 3-D self-portrait as a dead raver — an update of Paul Thek’s 1967 work The Tomb — Death of a Hippie — her collaged works suggest an almost complete fusion of outsider, fringe, avant-garde and mainstream culture into a single Americana, the consumption of which titillates, and also sickens you only slightly less than your inability to deny the extent to which you’ve already internalized it.
