Fire Season
October 12, 2024 – January 17, 2025
Fire Season brings together artists attuned to the intimate relationship between death and life and who embrace fire as an essential element in this process of renewal; after a forest burns it supports a vast diversity of life. They contend with our world’s present imbalance and excess of fire and offer material and spiritual perspectives on the planet’s eventual rebirth into its next unfathomable formation. Narendra Haynes’ work uses synthetic and processed construction materials to create landscapes from deliberate burnings. This work is in conversation with Ye Qin Zhu’s relief paintings that breathe new life into discarded materials and mundane objects by weaving them into broader mythological scenes of creation.
Fire Season is co-curated by Kristina Murray and Ilya Blender.
Fire Season and Pining Away: Eco-Readings Outdoors have been made possible by a grant from the Joseph Robert Foundation.
