Opening Reception at Compound: When the Veil Thins

Compound will host a reception to celebrate the opening of the exhibition When the Veil Thins, featuring works by exhibiting artists Amir H. Fallah, Analia Saban, Aryana Minai, Jamal Gunn Becker, Mia Weiner, Mike Nesbit, Molly Haynes, Shaniqwa Jarvis, Thomas Linder, and Todd Tourso. This exhibition will feature a selection of works in painting, sculpture, photography, textiles, and film, exploring the relationship between art-making and the psyche, including memories, traumas, and experiences.

Focusing on materiality, process, absence, presence, and the relationship with the unconscious, When The Veil Thins seeks to illuminate the multifaceted ways in which artists grapple with personal and collective experiences, ultimately finding avenues of expression and healing through art-making.

Compound will also be celebrating the opening of Tofer Chin’s sculpture installation THERE IS ANOTHER WORLD, AND IT IS IN THIS ONE in the Lab, and Until All Is Dissolved by Roksana Pirouzmand in the Courtyard.

Curated by Tofer Chin and Mari Orkenyi.

Food and drinks will be provided by Union @ Compound. Music by DJ Hector Waluyo and Brian Vidal.

Parking is available at 1326 Obispo Avenue and additional parking will be available at 3140 E. Anaheim Street. Ride sharing is strongly encouraged.
