Simphiwe Ndzube’s engaging exhibit, entitled Like the Snake that Fed the Chameleon at Nicodim Gallery, is a visual and aural treat composed of paintings, sculptures and two installations, all bathed in a soundscape created by the artist in collaboration with Thabo K. God is beginning to resemble not a ruler but the last fading smile of a Cheshire cat. įiled Under: Art, Artist, The Line Simphiwe Ndzube’s Like the Snake that Fed the ChameleonĪt Nicodim Gallery, Los Angeles (through 20 March 2021) Intensely personal as well as political, it is a revelation, encompassing eerie video projections, kinetic talking sculpture, operatic oil paintings, invented conceptual violins, complex installations, multiple soundscapes, and everywhere words static and moving painted on floors and walls surrounding the viewer. Simply titled (though not so simple) The Weather, it is billed as an immersive multimedia experimental exhibit, but really it is an otherworldly investigation into what it means to be a human in this twenty-first century. Laurie Anderson is a Renaissance polymath whose staggering breadth of knowledge, insatiable curiosity, technical virtuosity and conceptual rigor form the basis for her superb exhibit at The Hirshhorn. “Stories are our weather” –Laurie Anderson “What are the days for? To put between the endless nights. What are the nights for? To slip through time into another world.” –Laurie Anderson At the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington D.C.
