GROT The Fifty Fifty Art Collective Oct 29 - Nov 26, 2024
In 2020 it was estimated that the total weight of manufactured objects in the world was the same as the weight of the earth’s remaining biosphere. To grind, to cut, to crush, to split, and to signal, these actions mechanically initiate a process of vitalist material transformation. These kinetic sculptures suggest means by which solids are churned into flows and energized reshaping the world. Totemic, semi-autonomous, quasi-biological, we live amongst emergent agentic objects. |
