Overview
Blake Daniels: Libation Bearers, 2023.
Blake Daniels: Libation Bearers, 2023.
Maybe part of the human condition is to perpetually crave a tomorrow that would bring all that today falls short of delivering. If so, Full and Pure: Body, Materiality, Gender is just another expression of such an intuitive yearning. 

Full and Pure: Body, Materiality, Gender explores the scene of deliverance by reflecting on the becomings of gender, bodies, and materiality. This exhibition is comprised of the works of 40 intergenerational artists creating in a range of mediums: from poetry, video, and sculpture, to painting, photography, and installation. Every work speaks to some combination of the three axes around which this exhibition is centered: the somatic, materiality, and gendered embodiment. All three are reconsidered in their most generous forms through processes of abstraction and experimentation. Indeed, this exhibition articulates that the body’s capacities must be reconceptualized expansively; that gender’s true nature exceeds digestible clarity; and that materiality’s potential can’t be fully appreciated without also recognizing its autonomy. It is upon these undeniable truths that Full and Pure’s tomorrow is predicated.
