ROCHELLE GOLDBERG - THE LEAKS THAT LINK: INTRACTION #3
APRIL 19 - MAY 18, OPENING RECEPTION APRIL 20 , 6-8 PMRELEASE
Included in the exhibition are welded steel constructions evoking rudimentary toilets, deflated pleather cushions, empty tuna cans in a variety of military-spec finishes, and ceramics whose surfaces bear the impression of synthetic snake skin. The objects are moments of petrifaction thrown off from a process of becoming. The eye, hand, and execratory orifices lose their verticality (according to the their arrangement on the human frame). Instead they cohabitate on a single plane, each becoming an instrument for knowing the unstable border - wherein the outer material molds to the contours of the space within.Rochelle Goldberg, Eli Ping Frances Perkins, New York
