A solo exhibition with New York-based artist Eva LeWitt. The presentation will consist of twenty-one unique sculptures from the artist’s recent Hanging Spheres series. LeWitt’s sculptures and installations are fabricated as much from space, light, and architecture, as they are from the multitude of hand-altered commercial materials she employs. Mesh, silicone, sponges, and other quotidian store-bought elements are carefully dyed, cast, or stained, and are subsequently imbued with a softness and imperfection that was lacking in their original mass-produced state. The monumental scale of her installations contrasts with the simplicity of form in each individual element. This is one of many paradigms in which LeWitt’s work straddles oppositions: vibrant yet reticent, pliable yet sharp, formally sophisticated yet charmingly imprecise. LeWitt employs minimalism and geometry in a streamlined language of abstraction, which is nevertheless suffused with joy, warmth, and alluring animation.
