Willamette Week Picks

WW Picks

Mona Superhero is a rising Pop-art superstar whose 15 minutes have officially commenced. In a few short months the self-taught dynamo whipped up a rather extraordinary batch of trippy tableaux rendered in precision-cut duct tape. Multicolored, sliced and diced, overlaid and underlaid in intricate fashion, with dominant central figures surrounded by ornamentation approaching the Byzantine. It’s a gimmicky medium, but these works would turn heads even if they were merely paintings.

3356 SE Belmont St., 235-6041. Closes April 30. View Mona Superhero’s art online at www.monasuperhero.com.
