Souvenir 1–5, 2026
Richard Vergez’s collage practice condensed into a series of intimate works, where fragments are assembled and sealed in wax. The surface becomes both archive and barrier, as the wax holds the image in place, while also softening and distorting it, creating a tension between preservation and disappearance.
Fragments of Disappearance, a solo exhibition by Richard Vergez, is on view through April 4.
We’ll be hosting a final gathering at our space in Little River this Saturday April 4th from 5-9PM with SOUNDS BY MARTIN ZERO.
hours: sunday–monday: by appointment tuesday: 11 AM–6 PM wednesday: 11 AM–6 PM thursday: 11 AM–6 PM friday: 11 AM–6 PM saturday: 12 PM–5 PM

Saturday, April 4th- DISAPPEAR HERE- Closing of exhibition and our Little River space.
Hi,
As we enter the final days of Richard Vergez’s ‘Fragments of Disappearance,’ we want to share an important transition.
This exhibition will be the last presented in our current space in Little River.
Over the past years, the gallery has held a series of exhibitions, performances, and conversations that have shaped what homework is today. They were not only meaningful to us, but to the multitude of artists we worked with, and to the local and global community that formed around the gallery.
The space functioned as a site of experimentation and collaboration….. yet it was something we’ve always understood as fluid rather than fixed.
As the conditions around us continue to shift, we see this moment as a natural closing of a chapter…. one that allows the program to move forward with intention.
You can’t control outcomes, you can only control inputs…. so, looking ahead, we aim to deepen our commitment to other experimental avenues that extend beyond a fixed spatial model… for the time being.
‘Fragments of Disappearance’ feels, in many ways, aligned with this transition. The exhibition considers impermanence, memory, and the unstable lives of objects over time……questions that now extend beyond the works themselves and into the life of the space.
We’ll be hosting a final gathering this Saturday April 4th from 5-9PM with SOUNDS BY MARTIN ZERO.
We hope you’ll spend time with us in the coming days as this chapter comes to a close.
Thanks to all who have supported us throughout our time in Little River.
More soon on what comes next.
love,
homework

Fragment 2 & Fragment 3, 2026
These works fold back into Richard Vergez’s practice, where nothing is truly left behind. Composed from discarded images once set aside in earlier collages, they carry a curatorial logic of return, fragments given a second life, not as remnants but as anchors. The compositions feel deliberate yet provisional, as if still shifting beneath the surface.
The structures themselves hold their own past. The wood, repurposed from a previous exhibition’s diorama, becomes both support and subject. Encased in resin, each element is fixed in place, suspended, preserved, sealed in time.
What emerges is a quiet convergence of cycles. Image, material, and memory move through phases of use, discard, and recovery. Here, they settle into a new form that holds all of those moments at once.
Richard Vergez’s solo exhibition Fragments of Disappearance is on view through April 4.

Disappear Here, 2026
A portal to a temporary universe of restful meditation and solitary sanctuary. Once inside, you are encouraged to have a seat and observe yourself in the mirror to a backdrop of special music and dim lighting. The sound you hear is a distorted interpretation of the gallery toilet flushing. Disappear Here.
Be sure to experience Richard Vergez’s solo exhibition Fragments of Disappearance, on view through April 4.

Playback, 2026
Playback is a self-referential, sculptural piece for obsolete machines. A reel-to-reel tape machine plays a recording of its own operation on a continuous tape loop suspended from the ceiling, using the attached radio as an amplifier. The sound documents the device’s mechanical labor, while the machine performs that same labor in real time rendering time as a physical loop and an object both archival and performative. The tape machine plays itself. Ingrained in the objects is the animism of their past owners.

Thank you to everyone who helped bring this moment together.

Collage Wall, 2026
This wall presents a selection from Richard Vergez’s ongoing collage practice, a daily discipline he often describes as “painting with images.” Working with archival source material, Vergez assembles fragments of human figures, technological elements, and graphic forms into compositions that balance density with restraint. His distinct visual language makes clever use of negative space, allowing each collage to breathe while guiding the viewer through layered narratives about memory, media, and modern identity.
Installed together, the works form a shifting visual field. Each collage is individually available for purchase and replaced as it is acquired, allowing the wall to function as a living, evolving installation that gradually changes over the course of the exhibition.
Richard Vergez’s solo exhibition Fragments of Disappearance is on view through April 4.
