Casted at the Rupert Museum
THK are proud to announce Jake Michael Singer in Casted at the Rupert Museum. Casted places two contemporary artists, Jake Michael Singer and Patrick Bongoy, in conversation with the Rupert Museum’s Scultura Italiana, on view until 28 January 2024.
“This exhibition is an appreciation of the expressive artistic period that transformed and even transfigured anthropomorphic representation and informed the alternative use of materials. The selection of mid-20th-century sculpture in conversation with 21st-century contemporary pieces by both Patrick Bongoy (b1980) and Jake Michael Singer (b1991) challenges the viewer with forms and materials that are often disquieting, aggressive, bold, and textured.
Texture places itself at the forefront of Singer and Bongoy’s visually innovative work even though their use of material is worlds apart – thousands of stainless-steel rods of various lengths transforming into a ‘coat of feathers’ contrasted to recycled, upcycled rubber and inner tubes in the most delicate cuts, braids and weaves resulting in layered abstract yet metaphoric tapestries. With the Italians’ experimentation and expressive mark-making, the aesthetics of the surfaces are foregrounded yet juxtaposed with the contemporary artists. Harmony is found with wing-shaped forms that echo through the space – a sign of freedom, liberation or even flight.”
