This event has ended.

Planthouse presents Sampler, a solo exhibition featuring the works of Brooklyn based artist David B. Smith. Inspired by his participation in Planthouse’s 2017 exhibition of artist-made flags, Say a Little Prayer for U.S., Smith has continued to make ‘flags’ by fervently embroidering digitally woven cotton of his own design with wool, hemp, acrylic and other threads, mirroring the act of prayer through an extended interaction with each piece.

David B. Smith is a multi-disciplinary artist combining photography, textiles, sound and sculpture to unravel the interconnected nature of embodied subjectivity in an increasingly digital world. He has been awarded residencies by Apex Art, New Zealand; Franconia Sculpture Park, Minnesota; Marble House Project, Vermont; Socrates Sculpture Park, and BOFFO in New York. Smith’s work has appeared in at MoMA PS1, The International Center of Photography, Halsey McKay Gallery, Asia Song Society, among others, and is featured in Fired Up! Ready to Go!: The Collections of Peggy Cooper Cafritz.

Sampler, by David B. Smith, a postcard package with a letterpress insert in an edition of 100, will be published in conjunction with the exhibition and will be available for sale at the gallery.
