Stefan Bucher
Opening reception: Saturday November 12, 6-10pm
Curated by Ben Jackel, Ismael de Anda III, Lana Duong, Sijia Chen
Transmogrified, weaves together and juxtaposes a group of artists that experiment with common and unusual materials to transform them into artworks that explore and recontextualize the world we live in.
The artists’ varied, dynamic work and practices hold in common the experimentation of recombination of a myriad of physical materials. They transform the possible expectations of how certain materials are commonly used, viewed, or thought of. They do this by translating modes of expression from aural to visual, simulating and recontextualizing common signage for new use values, processing digital statistical data as hand woven strips of plastic paint, or using graphic design to imagine asteroids as sanctuaries for human refugees.
Featuring work by Analia Saban, Ben Jackel, Bryan Ida, Ismael de Anda III, Josh Callaghan, Lana Duong, Nathan Mabry, Sijia Chen, and Stefan Bucher.”
