Slow Onset Events

Here is a brief statement about my upcoming exhibition:

Slow Onset Events
Adam Farcus
Office Hours



Slow Onset Events is an umbrella term for slow-acting climate change effects such as "sea level rise, increasing temperatures, ocean acidification, glacial retread and related impacts, salinization, land and forest degradation, loss of biodiversity and desertification."1 Through poetic sleight of hand, the work in this exhibition exemplifies the fear surrounding climate change while also offering a psychological-cum-superstitious solution for said fear.

luck and function

Adam Farcus - My Universe and Yours (light bulb, water, dust, star confetti, clamp light, and extension cord) 2009/2011

Our (me and Brandon Anschultz) opening reception for Ingredients for Humble Magic, at the Hills Esthetic Center, was last night. It was pretty well attended, the show looked really nice, I organized a few trades, and has some good conversations (a few of which I took notes on).
Today at 1:00pm is my reading. Hope it goes well.
