Jennifer Beinhacker’s “Engulfing” is abrupt, stylistically and thematically with her totemic renderings of figures begetting figures. Beinhacker, a self taught artist, has her composition anchored on the extreme right with a stack of vertically repeated “classically” rendered portrait profiles from which her black and red linear figures seem to branch off of. Intertwined, menacing, yet playful, they are dominated by a toothy truncated maidenhead, our Overlord, here anchored to the portrait stack, who seems to be expressing or literally “expressing” from her mouth the main cluster of teeth clenching “screaming meanies”, while a smaller separate figure jabs its elongated arm back into the lower right, completing a satisfying compositional spiral.
