Excited to be participating in DIVINATION at @peep_space in Tarrytown, NY, which opens this weekend and features a hell of a line up of artists, many of them friends. @natale_adgnot’s REIGNED IN will be on view in the adjacent room. The exhibition also includes tarot readings lead by brilliant artists using their own homemade decks, in the event that the @themorganlibrary’s Tarot exhibition left you with an itch still in need of scratching.

DIVINATION explores the extra-rational systems we use to make meaning, from prophecy and ritual to chance, intuition, and superstition. This small works exhibition activates Peep’s Back Room, our new experimental project space adjacent to the main gallery. Alongside the exhibition, a rotating lineup of artists and oracles will offer live readings and participatory experiences on select Saturdays and Sundays throughout October and into November. Practices include tarot, numerology, stone divination, readings with handmade symbol and oracle decks, and more!

OPENING WEEKEND READINGS
Saturday, October 10, from 4pm: Clara McClenon offers readings with a handmade symbol deck, creating a “tarot drawing” inspired by the cards and conversation. Readings continue into the opening reception.

Sunday, October 11, 12–4 PM: Langdon Graves offers oracle readings with original handmade decks.

Artist Talk: Thur. June 11, 7pm 

 Field Projects presents “WE WILL FEED EACH OTHER,” a solo exhibition of parafictional artifacts by interdisciplinary artist Melanie Elyse Brewster. 

WE WILL FEED EACH OTHER explores the tensions inherent between caregiving and jouissance, as well as maternal instinct and childfreedom. Melanie Elyse Brewster tells the forgotten story of hybridized creatures, bound by pleasure-seeking and obsessed with reciprocity, and invites us to collectively trouble the bizarre fruits this ancient worldview may yield today. 

Selfless devotion and nurturance are central markers of motherhood across time and culture. These characteristics form the backbone of beloved mythologies, such as the lupa capitolina (Capitoline Wolf) of ancient Rome. According to the legend, a wolfmother rescued exiled twin baby boys, feeding them from her own teats. However, the wolfmother is only remembered for this nursing, whereas the boys become rulers of a kingdom.

To counter this patriarchal narrative, a sapphic mystery-cult, Wolfmotherhood, gained followership across the Mediterranean basin. Using ceramic and fiber sculptures to create ritual objects (i.e., talismans, ceremonial vessels, banners), Brewster works in the esoteric practice of Wolfmotherhood, offering a kinky, queer reimagining of the infamous Capitoline Wolf myth.

Melanie Elyse Brewster (b. Miami, Florida) is a Greek-American interdisciplinary artist and scholar based in New York City. She earned an MFA from the School of Visual Arts in 2024 and her PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Florida in 2011.
