Opening Reception: WHERE WE WERE WHEN WE WERE NOT WHO WE ONCE WERE
June 2, 2021 @ 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
WHERE WE WERE WHEN WE WERE NOT WHO WE ONCE WERE presents the work of nine artists who, through acts of repetition, augmentation, and abstraction, reveal the alienness of quotidian life. They investigate a world where walls become malleable, language is ever-shifting, and everyday objects melt into new forms. The works that comprise this exhibition do not propose a singular narrative nor mode of processing experience, but rather they vacillate between apocalyptic hopefulness, utopic horror, and absurdist humor. Spotlights, crescendos of water, and a raft of ducks are just some of the elements at play, reminding us of the familiar strangeness that has seeped into our periphery in the past year.
Curated by Häsler R. Gómez and Kristin Hough
Featuring works by Erin K. Drew, Isaac Soh Fujita-Howell, Garrett Gould, Veronica Graham and Julia Kim, Jeremy Le Grande, Jackson Hunt, Adam Liam Rose, and Bea Parsons.
