For the mother of the many changing names, a solo exhibition by 2023-24 BOLT Resident Alexis de Chaunac, curated by Alberto Ortega Trejo.
This solo exhibition by artist Alexis de Chaunac, emerges as a meditation on the symbolic, atmospheric and pragmatic complexities of sustenance and its customs. The works that compose this exhibition, stretch and distort our perceptions of consumption, fermentation and digestion to the point of estrangement and disequilibrium. By disturbing elements from western spiritual iconographies and by reclassifying utilitarian objects, we are thrown into a system of vessels-and-surfaces-as-carriers of organic and inorganic processes of remembrance that allow for an ecosystemic understanding of subjectivity, community and ritual.
This exhibition would not have been possible without the support of Publican Bread Bakery and Chicago award-winning baker Greg Wade.
On view: Nov 1 – Dec 19, 2024
Opening reception: Friday, November 1 from 5-8pm
