Bill Abdale: Enclosure Lateral Movement
September 11, 2024 – October 30, 2024
“Set in familiar but unidentified locations, Abdale’s works evoke the anonymity of the city. Rather than documenting sites known for their historic significance or inherent beauty, the artist renders mundane everyday spaces newly disorienting through deliberate glitches, discoloration, gaps and cropping.
The exhibition derives its title from the screen printed work Enclosure Lateral Movement (2024), which features an elongated image of a fenced-off lot. Intentional errors in the digital stitching of the panoramic photograph disrupt the regularity of the chain-link fencing. This causes the viewer to waver between perceiving it as a consistent pattern and recognizing its distorted state. The piece, measuring over eleven feet wide, is divided into sections and dispersed throughout the gallery, preventing it from being seen in its entirety at once.”
