Debut of “The Comet and the Glacier” at Locust Projects

Best known for his animated live video operas – a term the artist coined to describe his combination of stop-motion animation with his live activation of the video – Alexis Gideon transforms Locust Projects into a surreal dreamscape, populated by the personal effects and relics from the creation of The Comet and the Glacier and Alexis’ own past, both real and fictive.

In the project space, Miami-based HUFFER COLLECTIVE will present SAVE YOUR SELVES, a monumental pyramid-like structure displaying detritus that is specific to Miami and the artists, continuing their attempts to annihilate Miami’s status as an “art world mecca for rich tourists”. Also on view will be Backlash II, an installation of sculptural paintings by artist Katie Bell that evoke the domestic sphere.
