Abigail Chang’s first solo exhibition with the gallery featured reflective surfaces that use familiar proportions from both domestic and public spaces. The objects read as windows viewed at night and invite an acute awareness of one’s surroundings.

Chang presents eight objects of varying shape and scale that borrow from everyday mirrors—cosmetic, full-length, rear-view, safety. Acting as framing devices, they call attention to the relationship of a body in space—encircling the face or reflecting the entire self. Perception itself is the subject of the work, with the viewer in direct dialog.

The objects reference the transition of a window from day to night. In daylight, the reflectivity of a glass pane leaves a glimmering trace in the surrounding environment, while at dusk, the dimming exterior glow contrasts with interior illumination. From within a building at night, the window acts as a blurry mirror and prompts an inhabitant’s sense of exposure.

The work examines reflection as a contemporary condition of viewing, reminding us to notice the ubiquitous reflective surfaces in our daily lives—the ongoing dance of transparency and bouncing light in our built environment.

Last days to see Tanya Aguiñiga’s new body of work in Coyolxauhqui Imperative. Mounted over black velvet, sections of open weave catch light and shadow to outline animals long held sacred across Mesoamerica: opossums, coyotes, vultures, snakes, and bats. These creatures occupied central roles in Indigenous life and cosmology, and some of their Nahuatl names, tlacuatzin and coyotl, persist in daily language as quiet evidence
of their cultural significance. Today, they are largely vilified as pests or nuisances, despite their vital ecological roles. Aguiñiga’s imagery is inspired by depictions of these sacred animals in Pre-Columbian codices, pictorial manuscripts covering everything
from history and geography to mythology.
