26 May - June 24 2023, Wilder Alison: Lacunary Seeming
We are excited to announce the upcoming show titled, Lacunary Seeming with US artist Wilder Alison opening May 26, 2023, at Lateral Roma.
This show will coincide with a residency at Lateral Roma where Alison foregrounds the practice and research around a series of dyed wool paintings that are constituted in trans-ness, queerness, and neurodivergence.
Alison couples comprehensive notions of reading and articulation with the work's resemblance to an infinite, alphabet-like set of characters whose final forms – much like handwritten letters – stem from a convergence of unpredictable conditions. The color-based formulations range from what becomes or is healed through a process of sewing the dyed wool fragments together.
The one-month residency and exhibition corresponds with the 20th anniversary of a French feminist theorist, and novelist Monique Wittig’s death, and the 50th anniversary of the publication Wittig’s 1973 novel titled The Lesbian Body. Monique Wittig’s influence is celebrated by a network of artists and researchers in Europe throughout 2023.
You are warmly invited to the opening reception for this exhibition from 6 - 9 PM on Friday, May 26, 2023, at Lateral Roma.
Wilder Alison is an American interdisciplinary artist and a 2016 graduate of the Bard MFA Painting program. In recent years, Alison has exhibited work with Gordon-Robichaux, Gaa Gallery, Rachel Uffner, CUE Foundation, and 247365, among others. Recent solo shows include mirror air error hunger at Gaa Projects (Cologne), A Ripe Blackberry Murmurs to the Wall at FIERMAN (New York), the faucethe drain breach\ a new /ife at Gaa Gallery (Provincetown), and Slit Subjects at White Columns (New York). Alison was a fellow at Schloss Solitude in 2022-23 and the Fine Arts Work Center in 2016-17 and 2018-19. Alison has also participated in residencies at Triangle France-Astérides, Lighthouse Works, Fire Island Artist Residency, and Lower East Side Printshop, among others.
