Organic Matter

Pratt Photography Gallery, Brooklyn, NY — 2024

In this presentation of the work, Organic Matter revolves around ‘Overgrowth,' a central tendril that has "grown" from the floor of the gallery — meant to mirror the theme of landscapes manifesting themselves out of Gutoskey's memories. The sculpture represents the understanding that even in the present gallery space, the process of time passing and nature overtaking a memory has already begun. The central formation has begun to grow and harden, and one day the exhibition will exist only in a landscaped memory, just as the images do. As the viewer moves around the space, two lights dance inside the tendril as mirrors flash reflections of both the gallery lighting and Gutoskey’s own images back to the viewer. The exhibition was designed to keep both the viewer’s eye and body moving around the space, combining cycle and rhythm to mimic unity found on the dance floor.
