There is an unstated hierarchy of forms at work in this enigmatic not-quite-solo, not-quite-collective exhibition. “Hereafter” was conceived by Simon Moretti and features works by well over a dozen “guest” others. The artist’s wall-mounted neon, Double Vortex (after Emanuel Swedenborg), 2025, is the show’s cipher. This work’s very shape—like a ram’s horns atop an Ionic column—points to the heavens.

It’s too early for a funeral, yet there’s no other reprieve in this commodity cult.

There’s an unfortunate ‘emerging artist’ vibe to this handful of readymade sculptures.

Pity the artist looking for the abyss IRL.
Chronoplasticity
★☆☆☆☆
This may have been a good joke but it’s just too exhausting to look at.

The Red Sun is High, the Blue Low
★☆☆☆☆
I knew that it was possible to understand art and life less after seeing an exhibition. I didn’t, however, imagine that experiencing Wielebinski’s work twice would only compound such damage.

A Flame is a Petal
★★★☆☆
Rahman’s zine hand makes this make-believe explicit but not plausible.
