Through April 19, 2025
The Serpent (2025), a sinuous form comprising an iterative series of conjoined heads created with epoxy clay and resin and embellished with pencils marks, acrylic paint, and glass rhinestones, winds around the first floor of Canadian artist David Altmejd’s current exhibition of the same name. A Snake Charmer on a facing plinth exerts ambiguous control over the serpentine form; additional sculptures on view draw on creatures including swans, nymphs, and rabbits to explore the subconscious self.
