Everything That Rises Must Converge
The exhibition, Everything That Rises Must Converge, created by Petah Coyne, portrays the theme of life and death. The choices of these works of art are chosen according to human nature. It reveals the joining of two opposite things, creating some sort of oxymoron that turns into ultimate chaos. The exhibition organized by title, which is created according to how the artist depicted strong emotion in the piece of art. Ironically, I saw a flock of birds fly by on my bike ride up to MASS MoCA, so when I entered the museum exhibit and saw all those birds trapped in dead blobs of roses, I felt something strong. I felt sad and trapped and felt a strong connection to the artist’s creation. I saw such innocent and free living creatures being swallowed up by a symbol of love and lust that is dead, decaying, black and evil.
