You Matter - Don't Give Up
These artists scrutinize the complex fabric of our existence, confronting viewers with paradoxes inherent in understanding our world through materiality, form, and the cyclic miasmic undertow of systems of power and dominance.
Jacob Jackmauh鈥檚 work is rooted in a tactile engagement with the artifacts of mass manufacturing such as factory molds, cheap toys, and disposable merchandise.Through assemblage and material mimicry he contends with the relentless momentum of consumer-driven industries and traces the latent visual patterns that emerge. In a similar vein, Dominic Palarchio uses objects and artifacts that resonate with the psychological and physical impositions of class. His sculptures make use of materials that originate in the automotive industry, domestic utilities, and a range of light sources that embody energy and its expense. An Industrial investigation continues with Wilfredo Prieto鈥檚 sculptures and installations which are characterized by shocking simplicity and serve as tools for exploring social and political issues with a poetic sensibility.
