Compound, the nonprofit art space and community hub located in the Zaferia district of Long Beach, is pleased to present “When the Veil Thins”, a group exhibition curated by artist Tofer Chin and mindfulness educator and writer Mari Orkenyi.
About
This exhibition will feature a selection of works in painting, sculpture, photography, textiles, and film, exploring the relationship between art-making and the psyche.
Participating artists include Amir H. Fallah, Analia Saban, Aryana Minai, Jamal Gunn Becker, Mia Weiner, Mike Nesbit, Molly Haynes, Shaniqwa Jarvis, Thomas Linder, Roksana Pirouzmand, and Todd Tourso. Focusing on materiality, process, absence, presence, and the unconscious, “When The Veil Thins” seeks to illuminate the multifaceted ways in which artists grapple with personal and collective experiences, ultimately finding avenues of expression and healing through art-making.
Concurrent with the exhibition, Chin’s work “THERE IS ANOTHER WORLD, AND IT IS IN THIS ONE” will be on view in The Lab, a freestanding building on Compound’s campus designed for experimental and large-scale exhibitions.
“When the Veil Thins” will be on view across the Compound campus from September 19, 2024, through January 12, 2025, with an opening reception hosted on September 19, 2024, from 7-11 PM.
