Valeska Soares “Any Moment Now …”
Eleven Rivington
This event has ended.
Eleven Rivington presents two new installations by Valeska Soares.
The 2014 work titled Ouroboros is on view at the gallery’s 11 Rivington Street location. The piece is composed of three elements: a brass track in the ceiling, a gold chain, and an antique pocket watch. The pocket watch has hands that indicate minutes and seconds, but the hour hand has been removed. Suspended from the ceiling of the gallery by a delicate wire, it executes an almost imperceptible movement of rotation in space, turning at the speed of one revolution per hour. Ouroboros presents yet another exploration of the relation between time, space and their possible configuration. The title of the piece alludes to the symbolic representation of wholeness or infinity, which commonly consists of a snake or a dragon swallowing its own tail.
