One Molecule Said Yes to Another (And Life Was Born)

Mar 07 – 28, 2026

Curated by: Stephanie Zhang

Description: This exhibition traces the unstable boundaries between the divine and the fleshy, the sacred and the raw. Through works that deconstruct and mutate natural bodies into unfamiliar forms, it asks what calls us toward our primordial origins: the alive, the pulsating, the grotesque. Life — whether human, microbial, cellular—is broken down, repurposed, and born anew. Bodies become sites of alchemical transformation: dissected, preserved, electrified, yet beneath this material fragmentation lies a persistent longing for connection, for the umbilical, for the moist nothing from which all things emerged. Swamps, spines, salt marshes, and cuttlefish are oracles of a world in flux. These works do not simply document a world unraveling; they gesture toward new ways of sensing and assembling life from its remnants, divining what futures might still be born from what remains.

Closing: March 28, 2026: 12:00–4:00 PM

Opening: March 7, 2026: 4:00–8:00 PM
