Cannery Village Gallery is proud to present Fragmented Circuits, a group exhibition on view from April 8 through June 4, 2026.

Against the algorithmic churn of our present digital culture–where images are endlessly generated, filtered, and recirculated–the artists in Fragmented Circuits insist upon disassembly as a radical act of making. The exhibition explores how artists employ modes of fragmentation to disrupt inherited systems of cultural transmission. Pages are torn, images fractured, folded, and painted—gestures that interrupt the circuits through which images typically move. Through these tactile acts of cutting and layering, found materials become sites of formal experimentation, allowing color, rhythm, and surface to generate new compositions.

Across works by Joe Rudko, Sarah Cain, Omar Barquet, Caroline Kent, and Erica Baum, abstraction emerges through the alchemical transformation of recycled materials—dollar bills, vintage magazines, and found photographs—into bold, rhythmic, and geometric arrangements. Gregor Hildebrandt and Tom Burr draw on analog storage vessels such as cassette cases and vinyl sleeves, conjuring what Hildebrandt refers to as an “invisible” dimension in which the memory of sound quietly lingers. Iván Argote and Marilá Dardot reclaim printed media–books, posters, and found documents–to reflect on hierarchies of knowledge and visual culture, reshaping their sources into dynamic architectural forms. The notebook pages of Marco Maggi and Analia Saban transform the intimate space of artistic thinking into sculptural gestures. Maggi incises the page by hand with near-invisible cuts, while Saban uses laser technology to etch her studio notes—sketches for future artworks—onto the pages. Together, these works map a circuit between hand, machine, and surface, proposing fragmentation not as a rupture, but as a generative method for reimagining how culture is produced, transmitted, and carried forward.
