Coming Soon—Boring Earth: a sliver is a seed
May 21–August 9, 2026
Boring Earth is an artist collective concerned with building more-than-human mutualisms and relations among living environments. It is a collaboration between artists Patrick Cruz and Laila Fox, alongside a gathering of material and immaterial beings. Their practice limns thresholds of intimacy between what is seen and perceived, conjuring elemental ontologies to jamb alternative worldings.

“By using cruising as a methodology for creation, I aimed to not spend excessive time analyzing each subject or action, but to center proliferation and creation rather than forethought, allowing new erotic ways of being with materials and subjects, and allowing meditations to emerge.”—Vance Wright
