Two-person exhibition with Joshua G. Stein ( Radical Craft) curated by Kitty Ross at AB Projects.

January 14- May 20
1206 Maple Ave., #540, Los Angeles CA
Open Hours: Wednesdays 2-5 pm or by appointment

Months of conversations between artists Rosemary Holliday Hall, Joshua G. Stein (Radical Craft), and guest curator Kitty Ross revolved around notions of material in geologic, biologic, architectural, atmospheric, and ceramic iterations.

If the landscape consists of the earth and the atmosphere, architecture exists between the two. Material particles—animal, vegetable, and mineral—move between these realms, blurring the boundaries of each. Hardened compounds like limestone were once living creatures. Hermit crabs collect minerals and objects from their surroundings to shield their bodies in a protective enclosure. Humans dig vast pits to harvest materials to erect buildings of the very materials upon which their architecture stands. The cavities are then filled with debris, either deliberately or via the ongoing movement of particles, and the pit becomes a mound. Birds swallow gastroliths as a mechanism for grinding food in their gizzards. Whales, seals and crocodiles are also known to swallow gastroliths, perhaps to serve as ballast. The soft body of an oyster transforms mineral irritants into pearls. Conversely, body ‘stones’ such as gallstones, bladder stones and kidney stones are painful formations of somatic minerals. The human body is geology and, accordingly, we humans are geologic agents.

This exhibition is a poetic examination of the transference, atomization and tracing of materials over time, and a means of questioning how we live, build, make, and evolve in the Anthropocentric landscape.

Digital collection: becoming.ink/feral-digital-collection/

“becoming—Feral is a creative research publication which aims to investigate the complex relationships between human/other-animals and the shifting categories of wild/feral/domestic, set within landscapes constantly being altered by global transformations of climate and capitalism. We are interested in exploring reciprocal and responsive multispecies reactions to the act of becoming-Feral.

In addition to a print edition, we will be launching a digital companion collection to present multimedia contributions in the form of audio works, video art and photographic essays.”

New online exhibition Making Kin—Worlds Becoming. I’m thrilled to be part of this exhibit that brings together a thoughtful community of artists to explore our deep interconnections with the living world. Curated by Andrew S. Yang, the exhibit offers promiscuous possibilities for new intimacies and emerging relations with the human and more-than-human world—as well as the wonders, understandings, and complications those acts entail.
