sidony o’neal is presenting Counting Devices at The Portland ‘Pataphysical Society (@patapdx), opening March 10 and running to April 15.

Curated by Ashley Stull Meyers, the solo exhibition presents new sculptural work and ‘image-inducing poetics’ to explore the boundaries between language and objects. With a focus on surface and texture, the Portland-based writer, performance artist and dramaturg works across disciplines such as text, installation, sound and textiles to consider ways to “retain, resist, and recondition” the artifact.

The show is part of a larger series that invites guest curators to put on exhibitions at the space over the forthcoming year.

See The Portland ‘Pataphysical Society website for details.**
