Malcolm Kenter: Composite Order

Sebastian Gladstone, Los Angeles Los Angeles · Hollywood
Exhibition on view: Jan 8, 2026 - Feb 14, 2026

Composite Order is an exhibition by Malcolm Kenter examining architectural ornament and utility through sculptural works composed of layered textures and materials. Drawing from classical column orders and contemporary urban surfaces, the works combine patina, decay, and craft to reflect contradictions within the built environment. Installed as a unified grouping, the sculptures emphasize density, surface, and the tension between ornament and function.

Malcolm Kenter

Malcolm Kenter, born 1987, lives and works in San Francisco, CA. His practice conceptually mines the urban vernacular, focusing on disappearing Bay Area signage, public infrastructure, and patina. Through precise sculptural processes, he replicates utility boxes, fire alarms, and overlooked city materials as acts of cultural preservation. Often installed in public space, his works interrupt gentrification, serving as subtle, lasting reminders of the city that shaped his community and aesthetic.
