TRIBEZA Magazine: Artists make American debut in West Chelsea Contemporary's newest exhibition - Dopamine + Disintegration
-
‘Dopamine + Disintegration’ presents the powerful U.S. debut of British artists Haris Nukem and Opake, whose provocative works blend raw emotion, vibrant rebellion, and sharp social critique. Nukem’s striking portraits explore the highs and lows of modern identity and youth culture, while Opake’s fragmented reinterpretations of pop culture icons address addiction, mental health, and the erosion of collective memory, creating a raw dialogue between decay and reinvention. Join us during the opening reception of ‘Dopamine + Disintegration’ this Saturday 03.08.25 2-4PM for an exclusive artist talk with both Haris Nukem and Opake.
