“DIE HAPPY” is a solo exhibition at Timeless Thrills featuring the artworks and creative vision of River Arvizo. Arvizo is a visionary using an array of artistic mediums to express, materialize, and advocate for his experience as a queer person. Thematically, "DIE HAPPY" is about reclaiming identity and creating your own world out of media inspiration and the scraps of other's projections. This is Arvizo's first solo exhibition. The opening reception will take place Saturday, March 9th from 5-8pm. “DIE HAPPY” will be on view from March 9th, 2024 - April 6th, 2024 in our gallery at 3714 J Street in Sacramento, CA.
River Arvizo is a mixed media artist local to Sacramento. Arvizo uses his personal experiences, media references, and sub-culture aesthetics to materialize his abstractions. For his canvas work, Arvizo reused materials accessible to him at the time to execute his artistic visions. In the following years, he was able to realize his experimental concepts via video and picture format. In addition to his solo exhibition debut, “DIE HAPPY,” Arvizo is also known for his drag artistry under the name, “Baddie Omen.” His performances include being a backup dancer for pop artist Kesha, and the winner of Season 5 Maxx Drag Show.
