SONG OF CHLORiS

August 9- September 8, 2025 

Song Of Chloris, an exhibition of paintings by Norwegian artist Ida Ekblad with sculptural ceramic vessels by Erin & Sam Falls, alongside furniture pieces by Brazilian designer Pali Cornelsen.

Chloris embodies the delicate yet irrepressible force of new life, of beauty emerging from barrenness, of a creative power that does not relent. Her mythology speaks to the persistent force of creative renewal, humanity’s enduring fascination with the cyclical promise that even after the harshest dormancy, growth will return, that life will prevail. And that some kind of potential will be realized.

Ida Ekblad's densely-impasto works are exuberant, worked over with a kind of electrifying perseverance; raw, self-possessed and utterly radiant. Built of layers upon layers, they disclose their own archaeology, like painting palimpsests.

The sculptural ceramic works of Los Angeles-based artists Erin & Sam Falls employ plant matter as imprint. These pieces contend with the poetic act of transcribing nature with itself, reflecting themes of impermanence, death and rebirth.

Expressive pieces by Brazilian multidisciplinary designer Pali Cornelsen furnish the space. Cornelsen's work beautifully captures the tension between contemporary minimalist restraint and the expressive material and formal richness that defined South American modernism.
