✨#TheGazingPool is on view now through January 19th at GAVLAK Palm Beach. ⁣ ⁣ Using the ancient myth of Narcissus, Alex Anderson’s (@100alexanderson) work in 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘗𝘰𝘰𝘭 investigates the cultural phenomenon of millennial self-absorption. 𝘕𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘴, a figurative sculpture that anchors the entire exhibition, depicts this myth with a kneeling figure adjacent to its own detached head. Further drawing upon this myth, the head of Narcissus is crying, dripping exaggerated golden tears into the pool in which he will drown.⁣ ⁣ 𝘈𝘭𝘦𝘹 𝘈𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘗𝘰𝘰𝘭⁣ Installation View, GAVLAK Palm Beach, 2021⁣ ___⁣ #alexanderson #gazingpool #narcissus #millennial #ceramic #pink #ovid #metamorphoses #reflection #ceramicart #ceramicsculpture #ceramicartist #contemporarysculpture #identitycrisis #identitypolitics #contemporaryceramics (at The Royal Poinciana Plaza) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJuRu9MF4AN/?igshid=1b4o2efd8whhe
