Open to the public

Please join us in the gallery for a Book Signing Event to celebrate Julie Wolfe’s newest launch, Apophenia.

The forthcomimg book, Apophenia taps into the optical unconscious to reveal something essential about perception.

Through juxtaposing images across the pages, patterns emerge through free association, unleashing apophenia—the process by which humans make meaning out of incidental images.

Over the years, Julie Wolfe has developed her own archive of images, appropriating and reappropriating them in new configurations that inspire wonder and pose urgent questions. How do dissonant objects and images relate to one another? How do we relate to them? What can we learn by looking askance, by interrogating the unknown, and by opening ourselves to the unconscious? Through this archaeology of form, the viewer is asked to consider the hidden visual systems at play, their deep history, and their afterlives.

There will be a limited number of books available for purchase at the event on June 15, 2023.

Please stay tuned for Julie Wolfe’s HEMPHILL Artist Social Media Takeover this weekend from June 9 – June 11, 2023 in preparation for the event.
