Join us for an opening reception celebrating SculptureCenter’s fall exhibition, “to ignite our skin.”
“to ignite our skin”
On View Sep 18–Dec 22, 2025
“to ignite our skin” features newly commissioned and recent works from an international group of artists whose contributions, spanning sculpture, installation, photography, and architectural intervention, explore shedding as a condition of the body today, locating it as an act of transition, becoming, regeneration, and refusal.
Taking precarious sculpture as the departure point, the exhibition features works that are texturally layered and pieced together from a hybrid of materials weathered by or forged through the body: worn clothes, collected debris, scavenged organic matter, tattered construction material, remnants of military ware, or AI-generated—discarded, found, recovered, composed, and rewrought into embodiments of the in-between.
Participating artists include Patricia Ayres, Elaine Cameron-Weir, Sarah Friend, Mire Lee, Umico Niwa, Mimi Park, Ana Raylander Mártis dos Anjos, Sofia Sinibaldi, Erik Tlaseca, and Yu Ji.
“to ignite our skin” is curated by Jovanna Venegas, Curator.
