This exhibition deals with artworks that are all built up through accumulation. Each artist will be working with an accumulation process that could result in compositing smaller units into forms of sculpture or installation. Other times, the layers might be objects with a less specific historical delineation. As general observers of every day, we see how things are built up through accretion and in additive layers. How individuals navigate, organize and situate these groups or piles of things will be at the core of "accretion."
