Featuring work by Lucas Ajemian, Andrea Marie Breiling, Ross Caliendo, Ian Davis, and Hayden Dunham, among others, the show comes accompanied by a text that muses on imminent human catastrophe in an illusory narrative of the now:
 
“…This everyday strangeness, this burgeoning lie of “fact” –a continental drift towards end-times and another doomed Pangea…”
 
The exhibition responds to contemporary anxieties over climate change and capitalist destruction, along with work by Aimee Goguen, Anton Lieberman, Jake Longstreth, Lila de Magalhaes, Chandler McWilliams, Dominic Samsworth, Marian Tubbs and Alice Wang.
