second material is a group exhibition bringing together works by Abby Cheney, Krista Clark, Adriana Gallo, Jane South, and Szabolcs Veres at Spencer. The exhibition is anchored in Ovid’s understanding of transformation not as destruction but as persistence, the same matter reconstituted into something unfamiliar. Each artist begins with the known—architecture, everyday objects, rituals of labor—and moves through their distinct practices toward something unstable and revelatory.
