Three Sides Enclosed, the Fourth Open to a Wash of the Weather

By Jenny Wu

In this cryptic group show, one was confronted with a series of cast-off fragments. The texts scattered inside How to Fulfill a Wish (Bronze), 2023, a massive fountain crafted from foam, epoxy clay, and polymer-based mortar by Jenine Marsh, provided the first clues for decoding the exhibition. The piece, a circular basin tipped ninety degrees and mounted to the wall, was one of the eight works by four artists that were on view. It was wrapped in a polyethylene tarp, crinkled to create a crude approximation of rippling water. A pair of bronze feet, like the remnants of a heroic effigy, clung to a low pedestal in its center. Around this plinth lay coins; adhered to them were tiny lines of text cut from the socialist newspaper People’s Voice, some of which read UTOPIA, SUCH A FACADE, and BUILD IT NOW.
