I’d Rather Go Blind is an installation of video, sculpture, photograph, and painting, and reflects on how we might feel the unseen, realize energy into something physical, and capture the ephemeral. Together the works in this reverberate off of each other and the space, reciprocally. Moving throughout this place, the atmosphere shines on intersections where light meets sound, where we are able to capture things like time and water, feel ghostly aural gestures, and wait for the next act.

The exhibition features the work of abdelghani, Jamil Fatti, Anique Jordan, Chloe Kaylor, Lara Kim, Agustina Markez, Scott Vanderveen, and Daiqing Zhang. It has been curated by Ebony L. Haynes, Senior Director at David Zwirner Gallery and Curator of 52 Walker with curatorial assistants Alana Perino and Jiaying Wang.
