Alyson Shotz: Alloys of Moonlight
By David EbonyMARCH 2023 | ArtSeen
Encountering the eight recent abstract, painted folded-metal wall reliefs in Alyson Shotzs luminous show, Alloys of Moonlight, I thought of Gilles Deleuzes book The Fold: Leibniz and the Baroque. The infinite fold separates or moves between matter and soul, the façade and the closed room, the outside and the inside, Deleuze remarks in his study of folds as an infinite weaving of time and space in Baroque art. Because it is a virtuality that never stops dividing itself, the line of inflection is actualized in the soul but realized in matter, each one on its own side. With the nuanced spatial play in these worksof a façade and an enclosure, outside and insideShotz seems to aim for a transcendent quality like the one Deleuze describes.
