ON VIEW

June 7 – July 12, 2025

Downtown Los Angeles’ Corey Helford Gallery (CHG) is proud to announce its next major solo exhibition by Pop-Surrealist painter, illustrator, character creator, and comic artist Camilla d’Errico. Set to premiere June 7 in the Main Gallery, Fabled Realms will be on view through July 12. The exhibit marks d'Errico’s fifth solo show at the gallery, following Nurtured by Nature (August 2023), The Color Wheel (May 2020), Sky (Apr. 2018), and Dances With Dreams (Apr. 2016).

Fabled Realms presents a body of new paintings and drawings that blend mythology, fantasy, and pop surrealism. Drawing inspiration from ancient folklore, celestial archetypes, and the enduring power of storytelling, d’Errico invites viewers into a universe where the mystical and the emotional intertwine. Her work reimagines legendary creatures and otherworldly landscapes as reflections of our own inner worlds—fear, desire, transformation, and wonder rendered in vivid color and intricate detail. Fabled Realms offers a portal to the fantastical, where past and present mythologies are reborn through the artist’s signature visual language.

d'Errico shares, “Step into Fabled Realms—my solo show of paintings and drawings that breathe life into mythical creatures, celestial spirits, and dreamlike worlds. These works explore the stories we’ve carried for centuries and the magic we still hold inside. Let the legends lead you beyond the veil and into the heart of imagination.”
