About the Exhibition

Taking its title from an old Notes App entry, “rest my head on a pile of tacks” presents a collection of paintings, sculptures, and installations as a part of Zoe Alameda’s debut solo exhibition. Referencing digital manipulation, each piece channels fragments of the online experience into a physical context. Explored is an obsession with internet culture and aesthetics, the effects of digital addiction, and our attempts to attain happiness through distraction and consumption. Further, it is a reflection of unwarranted obsession over a small metal device, the vices of an anxious mind.

ADDITIONAL VISITING GUIDELINES:

For anyone not fully vaccinated against COVID-19, they must attest that they have a medical contraindication or religious objection to vaccination and as an alternative present a negative COVID-19 test collected within 72 hours of the start of this event.
