Proximate Immateriality explores concepts of decoherence: the process of an object or an entity un-becoming, losing form and structure, or assuming anti-shape. In the XGeist series of paintings by Jemma Nelson, the artist explores the (dis)figuration of spectral bodies. What structural logic governs entities defined as anti-forms: ghosts, shades, echoes? In the Hot Pink Drip ceramics of Caden Manson, containers transform into excluders through the excess and deformation of surface.
