Forms of Flesh

Forms of Flesh: Contemplating Embodiment is a group exhibition exploring the strange, intimate, and often absurd experience of living in a body. Through sculpture, drawing, performance, video, and installation, the artists in this show consider flesh not as a neutral container but as a charged site of memory, identity, vulnerability, and transformation. Drawing from dance, trauma studies, queer aesthetics, speculative fiction, body horror, and decorative traditions, the exhibition invites viewers to examine how bodies hold sensation, gesture, history, and meaning. Ceramic figures defy function with flamboyant flair; otherworldly creatures pulse in chaotic ecosystems; projected bodies dissolve into light and architecture; improvised movements echo physical memory and emotional landscapes. Viewers are invited to reflect on their own embodiment: to see, to be seen, to feel, to question. Forms of Flesh sets the stage for curiosity, intimacy, and transformation.
