This week’s artists examine the narrative and cycle of change.
* * *
1. In Minoan Girls, Elaine Reichek focuses on the ways in which the Greek myths are continually retold and reenacted over the centuries, in the same way that sewing doubles a thread back upon itself repeatedly at Shoshana Wayne Gallery
2. Peter Linde Busk’s work is sincerely concerned with detritus: the literal, cultural and societal. He channels ancient Spolia architecture, where unneeded buildings or monuments were demolished and repurposed for the construction of new patchwork structures at Derek Eller Gallery
3. Inside Out, Home and Place will bring together a series of van Dalen’s works, providing a meditation on his longstanding interest in the clash between nature and technology, capitalism and humanity, and the way in which one’s sense of home and place in the world can be an ever-shifting construction due to external and often uncontrollable circumstances at Sargent’s Daughter’s
4. Sara Jimenez excavates personal and historical narratives as part of her artistic process. This search has led her to the image of casting wide nets into the deepest parts of the ocean, which symbolically connect here (NY) and there (the Philippines), two spaces that connote “home” for the artist. In the attempt to capture and contain lost information, she weaves fabric nets which are suspended from the ceiling of the gallery and fill the space at Five Myles
5. Ayline Olukman, Stephane Joannes, and Amanda Scuglia come together to present present NATURE/MADE at Massey Lyuben Gallery
6. Michel Huelin imagines a universe of mutations giving rise to both fascination and discomfort, manifestations of a techno-kind expansion according to a principle of proliferation, as nature itself without control or limit except that of the perception of detail, this notion itself becoming imperceptible and blurred at galerie zürcher
