Night and Day

In Night and Day, Emily Ferretti’s first solo presentation at CHALK HORSE, the vitalities of matter and life are uttered in the same way as how Virginia Woolf incites within us the amorous, gleaming, vehement substrates of being. These vitalities linger in between grass, in the crevices of the full moon, along the red pockets of autumnal foliage, and underneath each footprint ascending up the stairs. If you pay attention, you might sense them, and yet they are also contained within a palpable force that bursts with its own trajectories and propensities. They lie both within an interstitial place, and a vital one, which oscillates within a particular “thingliness” that does not intrude, but just flows and wanders, at times falls and bends.
