The show features paintings and sculptures by local artist Andrew Hadle, who puts pop culture icons, superheroes, and cartoon and science-fiction characters in a sludge-covered world; picture a sculpture of Chewbacca covered in sticky pink stuff or a slime-bathed character vying for the power to hold He-Man's sword.

“You’ll never see anyone else doing sculptures doing something like this,” says Emmett Potter, owner of Squeeze Gallery. “It will just be a high-energy, exciting show of different mediums and artwork they've never seen put together.”

The show also includes eight sculptures, 20 paintings, a special show 'zine, and T-shirts.
