*1/// Thinking I wanted

*2/// Looking at clouds

*3/// Chasing cars

*4/// My mother always told me only dumb people get bored

meandering as a practice

there is no greater pleasure

getting lost makes the eyes grow wider.

feel that all encounters are chance

The world is big to see it all.

Signal received

was it just for me >>>>

joy, or insight, or pleasure

reminding me I was here, still

For her show with Goldfinch, Noël Morical pivots from her hallmark knotting to chance new processes and expands her material palette.

This exhibition is an embodiment of slow observation, a possibility of some things happening. Events in the absence of any obvious design. Once the dice are thrown there is something to see, something to hear, something to experience.
