Capricious Gallery says…

Egyptian for both "beautiful" and "good," Nefer/Nfr is a group show for seven Brooklyn-based artists who explore human decoration and decorum through sculpture, sound, and other media. Curated by Molly Surno — who contributes a photographic monograph on Brooklyn's alluring fingernail art and culture — the artworks include Suzette Guy's outré headdress for an "urban-jungle queen," Leif Ritchey's scrappy ode to ephemera, and Shaun Kessler and Olivia Wyatt's series of juju, Malian-influenced masks. For opening night, DJ Luiza Sa of CSS spins and artist Abby Walton provides free nail art.
