Ragen Moss
Horizon Figures
Galerie Gisela Capitain is delighted to announce the first solo exhibition with U.S.American artist Ragen Moss.
Ragen Moss is an artist whose practice considers the history of sculpture and offers the discourse of sculpture a new turn towards an original and complex use of space. Moss’s proposition for contemporary sculpture is to move away from a flat consideration of exterior rind or mere surface and instead to press sculpture towards capaciousness: a lived and expansive spatial form.
Suspended from the ceiling and made from transparent and opaque materials, Moss’s works ask the viewer to fully circumnavigate them, considering the works at all angles and with a full range of motion: the space within the installation, the space engaged around the works, and, most notably, the space inside the works and through /across their membrane-like permeable boundaries, which enable a new, interior-focused gaze.
