Kay Kasparhauser’s New Decay explores the inextricable link between life and decomposition through sculptures inhabited by isopods and paintings made from Spotted Lantern Fly pigment. Investigating “Inadequate Container Anxiety,” she examines physical and existential boundaries using remnants and decay-driven processes. Rather than depicting death, the exhibition reinterprets decay as an architect, shaping life’s continuity through transformation and perpetual motion.
