ILY’s pop-up gallery exhibit, I Used To Love Us, debuted the first weekend of December at The Bishop Gallery in Brooklyn, NY.
The exhibit showcased the work of nine artists: Haylee Anne, Stacy-Ann Ellis, Jane Claire Hervey, Jinni J, D’ana Nuñez, Tania Peralta, Rukmini Poddar, Tabban Soleimani, and Alycea Tinoyan. Each artist created a piece based on household items that remind them of their ex-lovers to show how even in safe spaces you can still be haunted by their ghost.
Opening night (December 1, Friday) featured music by DJ Treats. All day viewing took place on Saturday (December 2) and featured music by DJ Pablo Luis and live tattooing by artist, Jar.
