The Sea Vulnerable and Mysterious

1000 Year Current"
September 23rd - November 12 2023

This show presents a group of artists who all address water [the sea] in their work. In Mesmerism II, Ketta Ioannidou uses flowing brush strokes to depict the water’s surface, implying a space beyond. Though we cannot see into the deep, our minds imagine the wonders of what lies beneath. Christopher Lin combines elements of scientific investigation and material exploration to visualize the ecologies we shape and inhabit in the Anthropocene. In his In Zuru zuru (Drifting), various collected mosses and lichens, spring tales and dwarf isopods exist in floating terrariums that dance across the water’s surface and change throughout the course of the show. Humans craft stories about the sea to explain phenomena and grapple with mystery. Elizabeth Insogna’s work takes Greek mythology as an entry point, and incorporates research combined with magical techniques to form her ceramic sculptures. Wesley Ware uses watercolor to create layered worlds in relief. The swirling forms in Untitledwarrant closer inspection, revealing tiny plastic ducks hiding beneath the surface and inviting the viewer on a treasure hunt. Lauren Skelly Bailey’s sculptures take inspiration from the endangered spaces found in the ocean. Her process emulates the cyclical life of marine animals, combining disparate surfaces and finishes and collaging old and new works, allowing for the possibility of second chances.

"HEKATE'S GROVE" OPENING RECEPTION

5:30 PM 8:00 PM

558 St Johns Place Crown Heights, Brooklyn USA

On view: October 22 - November 20, 2022


A fitting presentation for the season of the witch, "Hekate’s Grove" is a three-person exhibition featuring Karen Heagle (painter), Elizabeth Insogna (sculptor) and Kay Turner (performer and folklorist). The installation of works and performances unfold the archetype of Hekate for twenty-first century contemplation and inspiration from her symbolic access point as Greek underworld deity, to one which unveils other occult dimensions in fuller detail and focus. These include her dissolution of barriers between the animal and human realm, her connection to older chthonic forms of the goddess, and her widely regarded agency as an autonomous deity who serves no master, not even Zeus, yet is a profoundly compassionate provider and caretaker.

Fractal Labyrinth, curated by the Sphinx Northeast

Sensibilities of noetic experience and esoteric investigation combine for contemporary artists engaging with magic and hidden meaning, bringing about forms that illuminate the substrate of experience. The fractal is endlessly recursive, a pattern that embeds itself repeatedly in macrocosm and microcosm, and the labyrinth is without obvious pattern, perhaps representative of the navigation of active consciousness. In Fractal Labyrinth, these two forms coexist, presenting as a variety of interactions with the principles of gnosis.

October 4th - October 6th, during the Occult Humanities Conference

She Ritual
September 6th, 2017 and runs through October 31 2017.
Westchester Community College Center for the Arts

Panel Discussion and Reception, Saturday October 7, 1pm

This exhibition investigates the territory of the divine feminine through encountering the spiritual, metaphysical, and invisible layers of this realm. Works included generously expand this historically rejected dimension into a space of empowered transformation through the practices of the artists involved in this exhibition. Ritual work includes the diurnal and magical as well as the nexus of how these spaces interact.

Artists include Clarity Haynes, Jesse Bransford, Felli Maynard and Elizabeth Insogna (as curator)

Creating paintings from visualizations of the divine feminine through ritual and research. The ancient cult of the goddess whose language is fragmented remains connected to the current cult of the goddess via underground streams. At FIAR, I've worked with the Mahavidyas, a primarily Indian group of tantric teaching goddesses, whose meanings move alchemically or cyclically and who are connected to larger concepts of time, space and the world beyond, but seen through the lens of the divine feminine, and Queer space opens up a different kind of reality than those terms under the patriarchy. These concepts within the framework of the divine feminine must be reclaimed as lost territories of our ancestors.

Sisters of the Moon features artists who engage with ideas around mysticism and mythology, illuminating the creative spaces where spirituality, art and female identity converge.

Tracing the Spirit is a watercolor installation that consists of 30 works on paper that come together to make one work. It is a collective of images from a vision which attempts to conceptually trace the human spirit through time. The installation opens to a second room which holds portraits of Guardians and Daemons, forces imagined to affect the shape of the human drama within the installation.
