Opening August 7, the group exhibition Pit of Desire, Garden of Prosperity engages in themes of ecofuturism and collectivism by offering visions of a post-anthropocentric natural order. Across the works, physical, emotional, and spiritual boundaries are blurred beyond definition. Featuring artists Devra Fox, Kat Ryals, Jackie Slanley, Rosalie G. Smith, and Lauren Murao Walkiewicz, the exhibition speculates on the collectivist possibilities of how humans, plants, animals, and machines may merge in response to global upheaval. Despite humanity’s destruction, nature will find ways to flourish without us. This artworks suggest that building a prosperous future requires decentering human-only desire in favor of a nonhierarchical, hybridized ecosystem.
