Baker’s Dozen
Baker's Dozen is intended to act as a review of sorts. It is a survey show of thirteen artists whose work made an impression upon the curators in the last year, but do not otherwise fit into upcoming projects. These thirteen reflect current directions in Southern Californian contemporary art practices, gleaned from the materials and themes they engage in.
REWILDING STRUCTURES
Rewilding Structures is a critique of the detritus of Humanity, not for future generations, but for potential future life forms. Using a post-humanist perspective, these artists reflect upon the ecological and geographic characteristics of our current epoch. It is a love letter to the forces of entropy and decay, asking the viewer to consider what will be left when we are all gone.
