Cooper Jacoby

Mathew is pleased to announce Stagnants, an exhibition of new works by Cooper Jacoby (b. 1989 in Princeton, NJ) and the artist's first solo exhibition with the gallery.

The exhibition features an eponymous new series of wall-mounted sculptures based on casts of Los Angeles curbs and sewer drains. They extend Jacoby's ongoing examination into forms of capture, distribution and material malfunction nested within ubiquitous interfaces. While previous works have drawn from circulatory hardware like door handles and mailboxes, Stagnants focuses on more embedded infrastructures: the inlets into a subterranean network of polluted flows.
