As It Unravels: Re-imaginations of Landscape
June 21 - August 16, 2024
Like a spiderweb knocked free from its anchor, or a fine fabric caught on a nail, our environment is unraveling. Each passing year brings a new threat, and a new state of disorder that forces us to rebuild our relationship with climate.
“The impact was everywhere. The eastern part of the country experienced unprecedented flooding. In Hawaii and the Northwest, fires did untold damage. In the Midwest, smoke hung over towns and cities. In the Southwest, places like Phoenix and Texas endured record-breaking stretches of heat. In Florida, the water temperature rose so high that it was unsafe to swim. Storms became increasingly dangerous.” Esau McCaulley, New York Times
Including works by Dylan Hausthor (ME), Brendan George Ko (Toronto, ON), TJ Rinoski (Richmond, VA), rocki swiderski (Tucson, AZ), Winnie Truong (Toronto, ON), and Hannah Secord Wade (ME), this exhibition explores the shifting landscape that envelopes us. The included works honor the nuances of our environment, but also consider alternative, transformative realities that provide a sense of escape. These re-imaginations document both interior and exterior worlds and range in media from photography and painting to installation and video. The exhibition will encompass the entire exhibition space at Rivalry Projects and run from June 21 - August 16, 2024.
