Satchel Projects presents James Esber: My Thing, Your Thing, and the Thing Itself—acrylic on PVC where American pop icons warp into hybrid, half-grotesque forms. Contour lines loop, color vignettes, and faces bisect into projection space, between lampoon and allegory. The Brooklyn painter’s hyperbolic reconstructions keep representation unstable: humor with teeth in Chelsea’s 526 West 26th room 913.
