All Possible Futures
Karey Kessler & Tali Weinberg
May 3-May 31
Conversation with the Artist May 31, 1 pm
Karey Kessler and Tali Weinberg use text, data, maps, and washes of color to trace relationships between places, times, bodies, and psyche. In a loud and fractious world of intersecting crises, each artist, in their own way, confronts loss while holding on to the possibility of alternate futures.
Made as practices of both grieving and care, Kessler's maps and Weinberg's news- and data-embedded color fields communicate beyond what we expect from these reference materials. Incorporating paper, thread, bark, and plastic, these works make space for a kind of knowing that is expansive, relational, and deeply felt.
Selected by The Stranger as one of the not-to-be missed shows of 2025: “the show offers a soft space to land, offering alternative ways to witness and connect to grief by literally transforming maps and data. The result feels like a poetic, grounding practice that might inspire a little hope for the future.” - Lindsay Costell.
