Hard Concept, Soft Material
Ochi Projects is pleased to present 鈥淗ard Concept, Soft Material鈥�, a group exhibition of works by Areli Arellano, Rachel Apthorp, and Sean-Kierre Lyons, curated by Rakeem Cunningham. The exhibition will be on view from January 11 鈥� February 15, 2020 with an opening reception on January 11 from 6-9 PM.
鈥淗ard Concept, Soft Material鈥� explores the ways in which the effects of marginalization, here largely through the critical lens of race and gender intersections, can manifest. Veering from a more didactic approach, Arellano, Apthorp and Lyons instead rely on the oft relegated materiality of softness. Using textiles, plush, faux fur and nylon, among other materials, Arellano, Apthorp and Lyons create a vibrant and immersive sculptural installation, extending an invitation to engage with the hard concepts addressed in the work through the approachability of soft material.
