Exhibition: Elias Wessel – It’s Complicated, Is Possibly Art

Curated by Alina Girshovich

1014 New York, September 7 – 23, 2022

»We all know that we’re changing inside our heads. Quickly. Too quickly. Until recently people were simply people. Now we’re turning into something else. We all feel it. We all know it.« (The Extreme Self)

It’s Complicated, Is Possibly Art presents a series of works by Elias Wessel that invert the digital space, playing with the seemingly non-corporeal, ephemeral, and magical forces tracking and shaping our experience. The exhibition gives visible, audible, and physical form to the orchestration behind the scenes, and the resulting fragmented, incomprehensible nature of language, individual identity, and digital communication. Can our perception of reality and ourselves really be trusted?
