EBONY G. PATTERSON’S EXHIBITION AT CONTEMPORARY ART MUSEUM ST. LOUIS NOW OPEN
Hales is pleased to announce …when the cuts erupt…the garden rings…and the warning is a wailing, an exhibition by Ebony G. Patterson now open at The Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, MO, USA
This exhibition juxtaposes two new works: an immersive installation in the Front Gallery and a monumental, multilayered paper collage extending from CAM’s 60-foot-long Project Wall. The new works represent Patterson’s expansion into a new phase of her practice, emerging from the foundation of her previous garden-themed constructions. The garden serves as a “postcolonial” symbol of a past that is never fully buried and barely visible. Her immersive gardens grow out of a complex entanglement of race, gender, class, and violence.
