“Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road.” -Jack Kerouac, On the Road Every moment is an opportunity to start again. Though, of course,
the things we carry with us remain, how we meet what comes next is up to us. The road ahead stretches out, filled with possibilities and unknown adventures. We can choose to pursue them, embrace them, pour energy into optimizing this moment. And the next. And the one after that. And so on… Tomás Díaz Cedeño spoke to us from Mexico City to talk about his show, Humming Songs, which ran at Silke Linder from May 12 to June 17. The work touches on local stories as well as personal ones, manifesting as sculptural objects in the middle of the room and ceramics on the
wall. The theme of the show speaks to the technique of making traditional terra cotta tiles, a method that has not changed in Mexico since its invention 5000 years ago. To learn more, listen to the complete interview. David Kennedy Cutler joined us to discuss his show, Hedge, at Halsey McKay Gallery. His physical method involves indirect inkjet printing, which involves multiple stages prior to the print including photography and digital imagery software. The resultant works become something of a sensory overload, teeming with energy much in the way that nature does. To hear more,
