SUMMARY:Alex Delapena & Daniel Arthur Mendoza: Soft Traces
DESCRIPTION:Soft Traces \nAn exhibition by Alex Delapena & Daniel Arthur Mendoza. \nOpening July 8th\, 6-9pm \nWalk-through w the artists & Jennifer Doyle: Sunday July 10\, 3pm \nGallery is open daily 12-6pm till Sunday\, July 17th. \n  \nSoft is delicate\, supple\, pliable\, velvety\, cushiony\, flexible\, fleshy\, yielding. Trace is a fragment\, a hint\, a shred\, a breath\, a vestige\, a snippet\, an intimation\, a marking.  \nSoft Traces is an exhibition of new works by Daniel Arthur Mendoza and Alex Delapena. It is an invitation to be marked\, to be flesh\, to be breathed\, to yield.  \nIn one of Delapena’s photographs\, a tender paper cut out of a human gazes over a stretch of abstracted landscape under a moon\, considering a future\, or the remains of a past\, hope and grief mix here. Quickly\, the infamous almost redundantly poignant political slogan “Another world is possible” comes to mind. This image transports me to more  \nresistance\, less fear\, more action\, more accountability\, away from screens\, capital\, deception\, failed leadership\, scorned bodies. The past\, or is this the future?  \nMendoza and Delapena’s works’ gentle and accessible wants are fulfilled\, carrying a viewer close inside a canopy imbued with hope\, history\, and possibilities for change. In this shelter\, we are asked to examine the weightiness of the visual propaganda instilled by capitalist patriarchy. Cartoonish bodies laid on sheer fabric and naive cut out forms stilled in images immediately allow us entry. Malleable methodologies\, such as the pliable placing and puppeteering of paper\, stitching\, and quilting\, suggest possibilities for an editing and an altering\, of our realities and social norms that are all too fixed by forces outside of ourselves. The artists signal our need to boldly reformat our realities\, forge\, stage or construct what we want to see in the world\, and they propose a call to step into these new shapes.  \n“Our strategy should be not only to confront the Empire but to lay siege to it. To deprive it of oxygen… With our art\, our music\, our literature\, our stubbornness\, our joy\, our brilliance\, our sheer relentlessness–and our ability to tell our own stories. Stories that are different from the ones we’re being brainwashed to believe.” – Arundhati Roy  \nSensitive histories spill out from both artists’ practices\, from material levity we land in their dense if not urgent politics\, yet we are cared for here. Mendoza meticulously celebrates queer history and its historical veiled-ness within the confines of daily life. Animated imagery and abstractions stitched from repurposed bed sheets and gauzy fabrics: affect\, violences\, intimacies\, glamor and vulnerability merge here. Reconstituted materials\, as always\, point to resistance. Meanwhile\, Delapena images spirits and historical traces from his complex home of Hawaii. Together photographed paper forms and soft monochromatic landscapes sensitively interrogate Hawaii’s oppressive colonial history as well as its landscape’s potency. Some of Delapena’s images point to the system of categorization and domination\, wherein plantation laborers from different ethnic groups were distinguished by bango tags\, in varying shapes and sizes. (We too are marked here). Images of sugarcane invite your body\, but the stalks are also starkly reminiscent of human bones as the landscape widens to include more of what has been hidden. (We become flesh here). Then\, Mendoza’s luscious hanging circular work persuades you effortlessly to commune inside of it. (Respite\, be breathed here). On this hanging monument\, illustrated quilted bodies belong to each other. Soft welcoming faces and embraces brim forth from glowing purple fabric\, evangelized by light. A space for layered corporeal bliss\, a space all too needed.  \nA shared deviation from genre specific making allows for Delapena and Mendoza to confront the masculine blunt edges of the digital\, the technical\, the proficient\, the automated. It’s in their denial of directness\, in their responsive gestures\, the sheerness\, the naive\, the poetic\, the papery\, the camouflage\, the feeling\, in the shadows\, where these artists position themselves. As I consider these works\, in this moment\, when bodies increasingly lay under siege\, as I wander through the diaphanous\, the malleable thinking\, the handmade-ness–- I feel the hands of the artists. And I am reminded that art making is a physical gesture of love\, and to this love\, we may also choose to yield.  \n-Zoe Koke \n

SUMMARY:Fidelia Lam - New seed. XXXXXX. New seed. XXXXXX.
DESCRIPTION:Opening: Saturday July 23\, 2022\, 7-10pm\nOn view weds-sun 12-6pm\, July 23-31 and by appointment. \nNew seed. XXXXXX. New seed. XXXXXX.  grapples with the affective and aesthetic legacies of empire and colonialism as they continue to shape the racial architectures of Asian diasporic femme subjectivities. The exhibition features new multimedia works that speak to\, with\, and nearby speculative ancestral figures\, drawing on Anne Anlin Cheng’s theory of ornamentalism to create sites for grieving\, honoring\, and queering modes of synthetic personhood. Playing with recursive processes and speculative rituals\, the pieces arrive in formations of plastics\, light\, and digital technologies to meditate on the racializations of matter and inter-textual modes of being. \nDear Ghost in my Shell which points are we passing pass by reference only please Dear wiring and connections our encodings have too many channels and have started to fray Dear OS update to use new features we are made obsolete our ram is getting slower Dear Major you are enmeshed with the synthetic sentience of the Puppets teach me your navigational practices Dear Minor Dear Method Dear Margaret\, have you found your robot yet? Would you help me find mine? Look at my errors at my seams at my torn pixels they might point the way \nFidelia Lam is a Canadian multimedia artist and scholar whose work attends to the shared ground of Asian/American diaspora\, aesthetics\, technology\, and urban space through recursive assemblages of code\, animation\, projection\, sound\, bodies\, and critical inquiry. \n(image: Still from when stillness culminates (2022)\, interactive installation.)
