SPENT: An Exhibition at GH36

SPENT: An Exhibition at GH36

Spent examines the compulsive insatiability of the industrial processes of extraction and consumption. Through a dialogue of photography and sculpture, this exhibition presents the brutal traces left by humanity on natural landscapes alongside monolithic sugar sculptures deployed as disruptors of Berlin's post-war monocultural forests.

Liz Miller Kovacs' visceral photography captures the remains of sites ravaged by excavation and remaining pollution, revealing the devastating effects of industrialized greed. Her latest works, printed on metal sheets, contrast with her earlier, more vibrant photographs, creating a visual autopsy of environmental degradation.

Richard Green's industrially refined sugar sculptures, including grainy nighttime trail cam footage shot in Brandenburg, underscore the artificiality of our environment and the impact of human intervention in nature. 

 

Open: Wednesday-Sunday 14:00-18:00 and by appointment
