Final week to visit our current exhibition, Rosie Brand: The Name in My Empty Hand. The closing reception will be this Thursday August 6, 7-10pm, join us to celebrate the show!

‘The Name in My Empty Hand is a story of relationships: between mother and daughter, human and more-than, life and death. By listening to the intelligence of clay, a living material, the artist asks how to loosen her grip, to hold and be held by that which she could not name.‘

It’s been a pleasure to host Rosie Brand and her creaturely forms this past month. Don’t forget to pick up the zine that tells the story of this beautiful body of work.

The gallery will remain open through the weekend, 1-5pm or by appointment until close on Sunday August 9.

Some beautiful installation shots of our current exhibition: Rosie Brand, The Name in My Empty Hand.

🐚🌀🕷️🌰🪾🦠

This installation comprises seven years of work seeded in grief, centered on the death of Brand’s mother and the year she spent caring for her. TSALA becomes a nest for the artist’s creaturely ceramic forms, porous vessels that play with sunlight. These abstract sculptures write in a language of their own: shadows released by their hollows are transcribed by large-scale cyanotype prints on textile and paper.

Tiger Strikes Asteroid Los Angeles presents The Name in My Empty Hand, a debut solo exhibition from multidisciplinary artist Rosie Brand

Slides show Brand’s cyanotype process, as she transcribes the voice of her sculptures: their glyphic shadows.

As she describes it, ‘I searched for meaning in the gaps between mediums, in the chasm of lost words. The clay came alive, spoke in a new words. I transcribed this language of loss to transform it. A made-up cyanotype ritual I have performed every summer solstice since my Mum died. To hold what was lost, I pressed shadows to the page and bound them in blue… Every year it’s different, the work always has something new to teach me. There’s something in the cycle of it, I return and return and return.’

This installation comprises seven years of work seeded in grief, centered on the death of Brand’s mother and the year she spent caring for her. Tiger Strikes Asteroid LA becomes a nest for the artist’s creaturely ceramic forms, porous vessels that play with sunlight. These abstract sculptures write in a language of their own: shadows released by their hollows are transcribed by large-scale cyanotype prints on textile and paper.

In 2019, a metastasized brain tumor gradually took away Brand’s mother’s ability to speak, write, and move independently. Acting as carer and translator, Brand became an extension of her mother’s body, an echo of her voice. Together, they walked towards death.

In the years since, Brand took refuge in her Los Angeles foothills studio, speaking into clay. Inspired by local ecology and plant morphology, she pushed traditional handbuilding techniques beyond their structural integrity, often bringing forms to their breaking point. The sculptures that survived firing are impossible, abstract wreaths, unravelling baskets, wriggling spider hands that carried Brand through grief toward healing.

The Name in My Empty Hand is a story of relationships: between mother and daughter, human and more-than, life and death. By listening to the intelligence of clay, a living material, the artist asks how to loosen her grip, to hold and be held by that which she could not name.

Rosie Brand (b.Oxford, UK) is a multidisciplinary artist and writer, living on Tongva land, Los Angeles, CA.
Brand’s ceramic sculptures emerge from an intuitive exploration of the natural world, as she interprets the tactile languages of other-than-human intelligence. Drawing inspiration from science fiction, occult surrealism, and amateur naturalism, Brand looks for magic not in the disembodied supernatural but deep within the living landscape with which we are entangled.
Born in the United Kingdom, Brand moved to California in 2016. Her sculptural work has been exhibited across California, recently at Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, Subliminal Projects LA, and Prism Art Space Sacramento.

Brand has been certified as a California Naturalist via the University of California’s Environmental Stewards program, and teaches arts workshops at various institutions including AMOCA, California Botanic Garden and Craft Contemporary. She is a founder of the artists’ collective worm school
