MSHR
CALM & PUNK GALLERY is pleased to present Network Entity, a solo exhibition by American artist unit MSHR, on view from 18 October to 3 November 2024. This marks the second exhibition by MSHR since their first solo exhibition, Frame Wave, which took place in 2019.
MSHR is the team of Birch Cooper and Brenna Murphy, who collaboratively create sculptural electronic systems that often take shape as performances and installations. Their systems use analog circuitry and open-source software, incorporating light, sound and sculpture. Feedback is a fundamental inspiration and method in MSHR's practice and can be found at all levels of their activities. In recent years they have initiated several series of installations that expand their compositional framework of audiovisual interaction.
The main work in the exhibition, Network Entity, is the newest composition in a series that was first commissioned by Vasulka Kitchen Brno, Czech Republic in 2023. Visitors can become part of a visual and sonic system that changes in real time as they engage with the sculpture.
Whereas Frame Wave, presented in 2019, was a work that one visitor explores and changes through a physical score; the new work Network Entity expands the scenario by opening the participation to four visitors who may collaborate together, materializing the simulation in the shared physical realm.
During the exhibition, MSHR is also touring Japan with a live performance. We hope you join us for this event and experience the world of MSHR, who create constantly changing ‘living’ works of art that are visually and acoustically expressed.
