digging fills presents a thirty foot audio video environment centered around a 3D lenticular print series. It reveals a place where the uncanny and the supernatural meet the grim everyday. The environment is built from a palette of television snow: the greyscale of static noise. What once flickered with millions+ colors now renders a dissolved shell through checkered lenses. The work and its imposing backdrop evoke a computer wilderness drifting through some slow illusion. These are documents of a decaying digital age partly imagined, partly observed.
A sound installation made in collaboration with Christopher Dougleris accompanies the show. A weekly event series will take place throughout the duration of the exhibition featuring screenings from
October 30 – Jessica Ciocci (Paper Rad)
November 4 – M. Geddes Gengras and Miko Revereza’s “Refractions” VHS release party feat. live performance from Gengras
November 6 – Devin Flynn (Y’all So Stupid) and Takeshi Murata
November 13 – PFFR (‘Wonder Showzen’ and ‘Xavier Renegade Angel’)
November 20 – Show Cave along with Cartune Xprez’s most recent cartoon program, ‘CMPTR PLYMTHZ’.
All screenings will begin at 8pm.
