Track 16 presents Los Angeles-based artist Galia Linn in her solo exhibition Resurgence curated by Emma Gray, founder of Five Car Garage. Her new body of work explores the themes of internal landscape and play through both sculpture and work on canvas. The canvas pieces are a continuation of the theme that Linn often expresses in her practice: sanctuary. In previous works, the artist created sanctuary spaces where people might come and reflect together, paving way for a resurgence. Now, the sanctuary turns inward, and the works reflect individual, inner landscapes, yet still sanctuaries, nonetheless. An internal landscape, for Linn, is not simply a fanciful location, but contains a map of the self, populated with past memories and projected hopes–a site for bubbling the unconscious: an internal sanctuary.
