Through decomposition, soil is made fertile for seeds to take root. What should we construct from what needs to be deconstructed—systems, ideologies, images, a line, a composition, a theory? What should or could grow in its place? In the decay of dated systems and ideas for art, culture, politics, artists can plant new seeds and imagine new ecosystems.
SOSO, the studio of spaces & objects is both a showroom and experimental gallery located in the studio of Matthew Philip Williams. Williams defines SOSO as an exploration of our built environment.
“…Objects in context, spaces with purpose. Trying to understand the things we make here in their lives beyond us.”
Closing Reception is: Friday, August 25th 4-8pm / Artist Talk 6pm
Open Hours: Saturday, August 26th 4-6pm or by appointment
Pipes deliver and receive as conductors; they flow all sorts of materials to both of their ends. But what happens when the pipe clogs?
In this exhibition, Portland based artists Elizabeth Arzani and ahuva s. zaslavsky meet in a rambling garden to conduct a dialogue about the concept of ends and the spaces in between, discussing the role of pipes and tubes as mechanisms for transporting materials and connecting contrasting spaces.
