In The Backspace
Ouroboroque
Benjamin Hirschkoff
July 05 – 27, 2019
Opening Reception / Thursday, June 06, 6–8pm
Closing Reception / Saturday, June 27, 2–5pm
A series of new sculptural works refining previous experiments with hydro-kinetic glitter in transparent tube and pipe. Ouroboroque is a combination of the Ouroborus snake biting its tail, and the baroque. This idea visually describes the work, and also represents to the artist the unsharable intricacies of the imagination that we, as individuals, can never adequately relay without the distortion of metaphorical language.
