A HORSE, OF COURSE OF COURSE

July 17th, 2026 7-11PM
Please DM for the address!

Few animals have carried as much symbolic weight as the horse. It has been a symbol of freedom and conquest, labor and leisure, devotion, spectacle, and escape. Both familiar and unknowable, the horse exists somewhere between the ordinary and the mythical, carrying meanings that continue to shift across time and culture.

This exhibition brings together artists who approach the horse as more than an animal. Through references to the American West, cowboy iconography, carousel horses, folklore, etc, the works explore ideas of power, masculinity, ornament, ritual, fantasy, fetish, and desire. The horse becomes a site for projection—something romanticized, idolized, feared, possessed, and performed.

Wild yet domesticated, powerful yet vulnerable, the horse has long embodied contradiction. As our lives become increasingly removed from the natural world, its image continues to hold an uncanny pull. Whether appearing as relic, icon, or apparition, the horse remains a figure onto which we project longing, control, nostalgia, and myth.

So proud to officially launch the single and video for Keya Goldfein’s Something Bigger.
When Keya first sent me the demo I knew we had to translate her music into something visual.
Together we built the world and populated it with angels wearing 80’s prom dresses. Then everyone else came on and added their own special touches.

link is in the bio for the whole video ! go watch now !
