The exhibition includes new installations that leverage his large archive (from around the world) of the ubiquitous marks that told us all to stand apart during the pandemic. Works include concrete sculptures, murals, framed and unframed photos on the walls, windows and floors, publications and more. The groupings delve into a wide variety of metaphors, encompassing themes of transformation, the fragility of health, the rigorous yet uncertain nature of scientific exploration, and the visceral, often overwhelming experience of emotional panic. Through these layered associations, they invite the viewer to reflect on the interconnectedness of personal and collective responses to uncertainty and upheaval.
