Put on your socks and mittens
It’s getting colder tonight
A snowball in my kitchen
I watched it melt before my eyes
— David Byrne and Brian Eno

Kendall Koppe is delighted to present Between Sight and Breath, a group exhibition bringing together works by Michael Bühler-Rose, Dickon Drury, Erica Eyres, Keith Farquhar, Jack Jubb, Erin O’Keefe, and Leanne Ross. The exhibition offers a meditation on the still life genre, foregrounding the artists’ subjective perceptions and how embodied acts of looking/experience give rise to shared, universal resonances.

Still life has always been a genre of quiet urgency. At first glance, it appears concerned with the modest and the inanimate: a bowl of fruit, a folded cloth, a vase of flowers. Yet beneath this apparent stillness lies a deep awareness of time passing, of change occurring almost imperceptibly, the fleeting moment observed just as it disappears.

From the vanitas paintings of the seventeenth century to modernist explorations of form and surface, the genre has repeatedly returned to the same question: how do we hold onto what is already in the process of leaving? Throughout Between Sight and Breath objects, language and obsessions become stand-ins for lived experience, carrying the trace of human presence even in absence. Together, the works intersect notions of form, material, labour, mortality, and domestic life.

In contemporary practice, still life often shifts from representation toward encounter. The familiar is rendered strange; the ordinary becomes charged. A simple arrangement of things can register memory, anxiety, loss, humour, or tenderness. Like the snowball dissolving on a kitchen floor, these works ask us to attend closely to what cannot last, to look, briefly and carefully, before it changes entirely.
