The structure nexus
Gallery: Goodall Gallery at Columbia College
Location: Columbia, SC, United States
Curator: Ashley Rabanal
Artists: Jessica Swank, Brooke Day, Ashley Rabanal, Tyson Gentry
This exhibition sits at the juncture of overt and subtle structures, utilizing the fragmented, altered, covered, or absent body as a means of probing the interaction between structure and body. Structure may be hidden behind shrouds of ritual or spirituality or seen in the objects we touch and routines we blindly follow. The Structure Nexus features the work of Zero Space members Jessica Swank, Brooke Day, and Ashley Rabanal, as well as works by Tyson Gentry. The paintings, mixed media drawings, photographs, and sculptures invite the viewer to consider the scope of both quiet and loud structures the body encounters, in moments ranging from mundane to memorable, from physical to digital.
