Inspiration into Action
Hamiltonian Gallery is pleased to present 鈥淚nspiration into Action鈥� curated by Chelsea Ragan & Adam Void of School of the Alternative (SOTA), a group show comprised of artists in the current Hamilton Fellow cohort and SOTA alumni.
Inspiration finds us in the strangest of places: something magical happens, and it is at that moment that action occurs. 鈥淚nspiration into Action鈥� ignites the spark between the things that fuel dreams and the action of doing. The exhibition will feature work by artists who traveled to Black Mountain, NC to participate in The School of the Alternative, the immersive educational experiment. Reflecting on this shared experience, each artist was asked 鈥淲hat is one thing you have always wanted to do, but haven鈥檛?鈥�
The work in 鈥淚nspiration into Action鈥� is the artist鈥檚 response to this eternal question, challenging them to actualize their soul鈥檚 desires. Within the gallery is a 鈥渄reamspace鈥� that will act as a portal for converting inspirations into action, containting video pieces from seven School of the Alternative alumni, and doubling as a performance space. The time-based work tells stories of release; of the spirit from the body, of the self from the past, of dreams from reality, and of potential from impossibility. 鈥淚nspiration into Action鈥� is rooted in future potentials, the imperfect past, and a drive for change.
