Trzebinski’s work Toxic Bloom, a functional light sculpture, grows before our eyes, showcasing his mastery of bronze to create art that feels both warm and alive. He is also presenting several pieces from his Hollow Promise series. These works, with their luminous patinas, bulbous forms and mouth-like openings, imagine the strange life-forms that might be found in a post-apocalyptic world. The asymmetrical vessels are strongly reminiscent of coral, conceptually drawing from Trzebinski’s lifelong fascination with the ocean.

The other two pieces include a photograph by visual activist Zanele Muholi and a work by artist Luyanda Zindela. Muholi’s arresting self-portrait is from their ongoing iconic Somnyama Ngonyama (Hail the dark Lioness) series, a prolific body of work that refuses the exoticising gaze and sees Muholi reclaim their Blackness through the images’ guerilla nature. The 2022 work by artist Zindela is a labour-intensive, intricately detailed drawing – it’s through the meditative mode of his practice that his works can be seen as representations of the time and energy put into fostering relationships with those closest to us.

A Place For Us invites viewers to immerse themselves in the exhibition, where organic forms, texture, and materiality unveil surprises and invite deeper contemplation.

Other participating artists, working in a variety of media from Patron, Praise Shadows and Perrotin include: Iván Argote, Jamal Cyrus, Gabriel de la Mora, Leslie Hewitt, Samuel Levi Jones, Caroline Kent, Jean Shin, Yuri Shimojo and Liat Yossifor.

Preceding the inaugural Aspen Art Fair, the show is currently running until 25 July.
