Going inside the Carlton Arms Hotel was an experience that is so unexpected and different from what I know and understand because the minute you walk in it seen like you are in a whole different world that is full color and arts that many people are not used to. This hotel is living a life if it self. Walking to room to room and each rooms have a different feeling to it that is comfortable or odd. Within the two rooms contain Helen Oliver Adelson’s art that is different in way that it come alive. Looking her painting, the thing that I keep at looking is the eyes within her painting because I felt like it want to tell us something but is unable to. So the name of this solo exhibition is “Ghosts” and I think I understand why. I believe it is name “Ghosts” because is like a ghost that I have a untold stories that they want to shared but they are unable to.
We was unable to enter the third room because someone is renting it out but I ask the person on the front who told us that Helen Oliver Adelson was an artist there for many years and the third room was more of her old works that you display and the other two rooms is her most recent arts.
Even the bathroom and the shower was different from any other hotel and we can tell it was build a long time ago because the bathroom and shower is built separately and the location is different. Also everyone within this hotel had to share the same bathroom and shower because the room don’t have one.
