An exhibition and a book release, opening reception on Saturday, January 16, 12-6.

We the audience are facing conundrums:
Marc says there is a tennis match going, but there is no victory and the rules are somewhat fictive. Jabari gave us instructions on how to build a folded object out of copper, yet its final form is impossible. Given these circumstances we may feel irresolute. These selected objects, companions in our small space for a time, are gently voicing concern about our expectations of fairness and order in our world.

Jabari Jordan-Walker (b. 1988 Chicago, IL) is a writer, artist, and occasional curator currently based in Portland, OR. Jordan-Walker is driven by a critique on the pervasive within commodity, wealth, art history, and visual culture. By taking the form of poetry, temporary sculpture, and short-form critical texts Jordan-Walker’s work looks to create conversations surrounding the urban and hinterland. He has most recently been included in a group exhibition at Surplus Space in Portland, OR. Jordan-Walker's writing has been featured in PIN-UP Magazine for Architectural Entertainment, Bartleby Review, and Pythagoras Records. 

Marc Matchak is an artist currently living in San Francisco, California. Recent past work has been shown through Pamela’s in Kula, HI and the Time Based Arts Festival in Portland. Writing has been published through The Volta, GaussPDF, Split/Fountain, Muscle Beach, and Amur-Initiatives. Marc is interested in comedy and love as interruptions or abstractions of the world around us.
