ICOSA Collective presents "Shape Shift | Grids & Surfaces". This exhibition spotlights two contemporary artists, Monica Mohnot and Juliette M.Miller Herrera Nickle, pushing the boundaries of form and material. A dynamic interplay of design bringing art into a shared dialogue of form. Alas Shape Shift.

Mohnot weaves bold shapes onto hand-woven fabric canvases, transforming these surfaces into dynamic, visual playgrounds. The saturated hues are embroidered onto the fabric, turning it into a stage where shapes pulse and interact. She combines paintings and woven textiles through the collage element using techniques such as stitching, quilting, and applique.

Nickle’s "Neu Bauhaus, T7A$HC073" collages, sculptural in their presence, transform pressed objects into illuminated, grid-zen compositions. These works transcend flatness, evolving into three-dimensional expressions of geometry, vibrating with ethereal tension. In a convergence of Bauhaus-inspired futurism and abstract tactility, Nickle’s large-scale collages are instances resting between huge and fragile, color and shapes oscillate with energy, creating a visual push and pull with Nickle’s structured grids.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display until February 15, 2025.
