Richard Heller Gallery presents Monkey Puzzle, Eric Croes’ third solo exhibition in Los Angeles. The Brussels-based artist creates towering ceramic columns composed of stacked heads, vessels, and figures that evoke both ancient artifacts and animated characters. Croes’ sculptures invite viewers to move around them, discovering shifting details and narratives. Like the monkey puzzle tree, these enigmatic totems suggest continuity and transformation, linking histories while sparking imagination and play.
