Event Description
The Deering Contemporary “Here We Gather…What We Need, We Already Have” curated by Dainy Tapia is an exhibition featuring sculptural and installation works that celebrate community, ecology, and the act of gathering. Rooted in sustainability and connection, the exhibition invites reflection on our shared resources and the interdependence between people, place, and nature.
The exhibition invites artists to create works using materials, both physical and intangible, found and gathered at the Deering Estate. The exhibition explores resourcefulness, preservation, and ecological mindfulness, encouraging creative use of what the site already provides. Artists may incorporate in their work natural and found elements such as leaves, branches, and other materials from the landscape, as well as stories, archives, sounds, and memories rooted in the place. Acknowledging the impermanence of natural materials, the exhibition welcomes ephemerality, allowing works to shift, fade, or weather naturally over time.
