TONIGHT is the @somad.nyc Inaugural Artist Residen $TONIGHT is the @somad.nyc Inaugural Artist Residency Exhibition opening from 6 PM to 10 PM at 34 East 23rd Street, 3rd Floor! The exhibition will feature two side-by-side solo presentations: “Prime” by artist-in-residence Soraya Zaman and “Mother Tree” by artist-in-residence David Aliperti. In “Prime”, Soraya Zaman (@sorayatzaman) explores the tension between preservation and decay. Still life photography often represents subjects at their “prime” and most “beautiful” whereas Zaman intentionally explores all the states in between and outside of this commonly accepted notion of prime to find the beauty and vulnerability within the rot and decay, the distorted and refracted. Zaman asks the viewer to question: What is the prime of beauty? Can we be comfortable enough to let things sit and be studied? Is there space to transform outside of the expected? Opened in 2018, SoMad® is a femme and queer led, independent art space and artist residency program that fosters creative experimentation. A platform, production house and gallery, located South of Madison Square Park, the name “SoMad” refers both to the physical location of the space as well as the collective’s frustration with the current landscape for emerging artists, particularly for artists from underrepresented communities. SoMad® empowers artists through togetherness, practice and collaboration. #sorayazaman #artistinresidence #artistresidency #artspace #artgallery #maguiresteele$

The @somad.nyc Inaugural Artist Residency Exhibiti $The @somad.nyc Inaugural Artist Residency Exhibition is this Thursday, September 26th from 6 PM to 10 PM at 34 East 23rd Street, 3rd Floor!

Zaman asks the viewer to question: What is the prime of beauty? Can we be comfortable enough to let things sit and be studied? Is there space to transform outside of the expected? In “Mother Tree”, David Aliperti (@princemonkey) explores how time spent and communal effort in the making of the artwork can serve to slow down the pace of the viewer’s visual experience. He uses repurposed paper paste, a foam composite that is very lightweight yet buildable, to create gravity defying, flora. These sculptures require many hours of meditative handwork; to sculpt the numerous individual petals, leaves and stems that come together to form the whole of each sculpture. The process of making this work is intentionally labor intensive and slow. Aliperti wants the viewer to be challenged by the notion that a small object can contain so many hours of labor. His process emphasizes the value of human connection. Aliperti explores cycles of life, death, rebirth and reconfiguration in his work. He views the human imprint as both tangible and ephemeral. In these patterns of repetition, he finds universality; that systems repeat on micro and macro scales across all forms of life. #sorayazaman #davidaliperti #artistinresidence #artistsinresidence #artistresidency #artspace #artgallery #maguiresteele$
