Curated by Austin Pratt, Wet Incantation is an open and shimmering reflection on water and language. This group exhibition explores the complex and profound relationship between these two essential elements–one a fundamental resource and the other a foundation of human communication. Featuring six artists, the works in this exhibition come to meet from varying aims and positions, ranging from the use of the dynamic and ephemeral qualities of water as a literal medium, or employing linguistic elements—such as text, narration, and translation—to evoke the fluidity and complexity of water's role in human thought and culture.

 

Featuring: Sofía Córdova, Rubens Ghenov, David Horvitz, M Jiang, John Roloff, & Julia Schwadron Marianelli
