Curated by Barrett White, the show navigates the ‘screenic’ and includes work by Rindon Johnson, Ed Steck, Robert Sandler, Holly Melgard, Joey Yearous-Algozin, Somnath Bhatt and Maya Martinez. 

The installation includes machine-woven blankets, digital paintings, graphite portraits and other materials “without the need for power cables or WiFi access.” Images of tabloids, presidents, ancient Egyptian symbology, make up tutorials, nature and emojis present themselves as ‘fragmented artifacts’ or a ruin somewhere between archeology and the future.

The press release includes a quote from Rosmarie Waldrop‘s Lawn of Excluded Middle , framing the works in the context of  “looking out the window at other windows.”**
