The gallery has been painted navy blue and gray for Simulacra coming this month!

In Simulacra, nature appears as an apparition. The exhibition considers how the natural world persists when our encounters are increasingly mediated by technology and threatened by ecological collapse. Bill Viola’s projected mountain fractures and reforms; Etsuko Ichikawa’s luminous field evokes wonder entangled with nuclear histories; Dornith Doherty’s lenticular seeds animate the archive of life, filled with potential even in the face of apocalypse. Together, these works suggest that mediation is both an obstacle and a place where attention and care take root in the Anthropocene.
