Bone Folder

April 1 – May 15, 2023

In the kitchen there is often a drawer. One with small things, and bits of stuff. Material relatives of the thin board, a screw with little plastic and wood buttons, squiggles, an extra wood turned knob, chicken scratch, a pair of scissors, string and dust. In these works, offcuts from an intentional lost and found are reworked and arranged into flat but sculptural compositions. Without figure and ground, there are supports, frames, mattes, signs, and baubles that reappear as found objects, as shapes and cutouts to be rearranged. This bricolage, slowly accumulated and formed in the wake of other projects, becomes a project unto itself. They leave the drawer or table and are hung up on the wall. This show meditates on process and the attitude of the workshop through vivid games of rearranging, mismatching, typesetting, folding. — Zoey Lubitz
