Carbon Black - Vern Evans, Elyse Graham

Vern Evans and Elyse Graham

Hatheway Curatorial is pleased to present Carbon Black, an achromatic exhibition, pairing never-before-shown rock n’ roll photographs taken by Vern Evans with the temporal, living sculptures of Elyse Graham. On the surface, the show revels in a playful combination of clusters of balloons and frenetic rock concerts, but closer inspection reveals fully visceral and intuitive works. Graham and Evans focus on capturing fugitive moments of raw energy and have refined their meditative capacities in terms of patience, attention and physical endurance to seize sobering expressions of passing time and fleeting youth.
