Obsolete World

far away is still somewhere

weighty pauses and artful hesitations

happy earth day

“Restless Garden” opens this evening at Modern Eden Gallery in San Francisco. Presented in conjunction with Earth Day, it brings together new works of art that explore nature as a living, shifting force shaped by both care and resistance. Long understood as a cultivated space, the garden also holds tension between wildness and control, growth and decay, intention and chance. This exhibition considers the garden not as a static subject but as something active and unsettled, an environment in constant negotiation and always becoming. It will be on view through April 26. Please consider stopping by if you happen to be in the area. If you do not live nearby you can view the show/purchase art online by following the link in my bio.
My thanks to for inviting me to be a part of this lovely show.
