Joseph J. Greer’s second solo exhibition at Hyacinth, Palimpsest, marks the gallery’s final presentation at 179 Canal before relocating. The installation opens with fiberboard panels arranged as a temporary architecture signaling withdrawal. The works explore absence through the loss of key functions—like light or movement—transforming objects via substitution and displacement. These sculptures reveal traces of past use, inviting reflection on objects’ evolving roles and histories.
