EVIDENCE OF BRICKS IS EVIDENCE OF US slime from the inside of a giant cardboard nose, we will revel in the happy chaos of the society of bodies.

There is color in Halsey Rodman’s time-based light and painting installation, Towards the Possibility of Existing in Three Places at Once, in which the artist makes three paintings side by side, each one loud with bold hues and produced gesture-by-gesture from memory, resulting in the creation of near-identicals with no original. Rodman’s work speaks to the transformation of the self—here the body is aligned with gesture. There is evidence of the hand, of time passing, of choice, of the day leaving us as the light in the room changes from sun beams to incandescent glow. Though the artist has left the gallery space, we are in proximity to his body; there is still a record of his action through the changes he made to our perception. Color has a voice, as do we.
