Works in Progress began as an impulse to explore how self-doubt, procrastination, and creative mania could be channeled into a curatorial approach that rejects the possibility of completion in a city of tangents and a world in flux.
NYC is an urban ecosystem that defies its own life expectancy, held up by a delicate scaffolding of human and more-than-human relationships. From a shrine for cockroaches to a woven tapestry of city e-waste, the works on show highlight artists who interrogate and deconstruct the city that makes us as we try to make it.
Curated by Izzy Groenewegen and Eliot Lambert <3
βWORK IN PROGRESSβ will show at 3RDStory Gallery, 349 Suydam Street from 6-17th March. OPENING NIGHT FRIDAY 6TH MARCH 7-9PM

How might we engage with soil microorganisms and subversive plant life that traverse the borders of privately owned βvacantβ lots to advance environmental justice in cities?

"The Life Force of Dirt" emphasizes how even in soils deemed disposable - as waste - their life-force remains. Soil chromatography reveals the way pollution oppresses the life-force of the soils, yet the life within these soils still endures.
This is made palpable through the soil chromatography imagery created from soils collected from around the largest fossil fuel facility in NYS in North Brooklyn.
A collaboration between Marina Heronβs Soils and Spirit project, Cooper Park Houses Residents Council, Sane Energy Project, the No North Brooklyn Pipeline Alliance, and Urban Soils Institute, the soil chromatography community workshop was led by soil science student Ellie Phillips for Cooper Park Houses NYCHA residents, local environmental justice organizers and artists.
A video about the project and map of the locations where we sampled soils will be exhibited, as well as the ritual soil objects that are incorporated into Soils and Spirit movement meditations and performances.
This will be my 3rd year presenting at the Soils Symposium -- The urban soils community means so much to me, and I can't wait for all of us to be together again.
Come join us soil dorks!
This Friday and Saturday:
10th Annual Urban Soils Symposium
