Opening Reception | Journey into Clarity: Solo Exhibition of Organic Sculptural Forms


An opening reception to celebrate new work by artist Tith Kanitha (b. 1987, lives and works in Phnom Penh, Cambodia). This will be Tith’s first solo institutional presentation in the United States and her New York debut. Journey into Clarity will feature Tith’s celebrated organic sculptural forms. In her practice, Tith coils steel wire by hand around a thin copper steel rod and shapes the malleable lengths into porous abstractions that oscillate between line and mass. Each sculpture, made without preparatory drawings, takes shape through patient, iterative gestures. Slow and methodical, her embodied technique is a meditation on Cambodia’s past and present, refusing to resolve the questions that history leaves open.

Anne Turyn, a New York-based fine art photographer, will share Top Stories, a prose periodical that she edited and published from 1978 to 1991. Over the course of twenty-nine issues, it served as a pivotal platform for experimental fiction and art through single-artist issues and two anthologies.
