Paroxysm of Sublime

Contemporary Art Exhibition

Responsibilities: Volunteer Exhibition Builder
Location: LACE - Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibition, Hollywood
Year: 2019

Exhibition in partnership with France Los Angeles Exchange (FLAX) Curated by Anna Milone, FLAX Program Director and Curator and Ana Iwataki, Associate Curator.

About the Exhibition: The title of this exhibition, quoting a poem by sculptor Sara Favriau, emphasizes the unfolding of changes, leading to a paroxysm often followed by a drastic transformation. Directly referencing the overwhelmingness of the sublime as defined by Kant, the exhibition draws from the history and present of philosophy. To take on the concept of solastalgia, we need to question our definitions of “home” and “environment.”
