New exhibition—’The wilds of epiphenomena’ at Phase Gallery

I’m thrilled to have curated a new exhibition of LA-based conceptual sculptors at Phase Gallery. The exhibition runs from April 13 – May 11, 2024. Full details below.

The wilds of epiphenomena

Scott Benzel, Tanya Brodsky, Alice Könitz, Rita McBride, Kristin Posehn

An epiphenomena is a second-order phenomenon. In the philosophy of mind, it relates to a theory whereby matter gives rise to mental phenomena and consciousness. Each work in The wilds of epiphenomena explores and probes a world beyond the ordinary, a world of second-order and higher phenomena. With materials ranging from dry ice to currency and electronics, these artworks give rise to physical, imaginal, and conceptual shape-shifting, hinting at the mutable nature of mind and presence.
