No Place is pleased to present: 𝘼𝙉𝙄𝙈𝘼, 𝘼𝙉𝙄𝙈𝙐𝙎, a solo exhibition of new paintings and collages by Cincinnati-based artist Charlie Goering. Please join us for the opening reception on Friday, September 4th from 6–9 PM.
Early conversations around Anima, Animus began with John Donne’s assertion that ‘no man is an island,’ and with an inversion of that idea: Showing up to the studio can feel like showing up stranded on an island. The only way off the island, and back to our fellow humans, is through the act of making. Taking its title from Carl Jung’s conception of the anima and animus, the exhibition considers the encounter between what is known and what remains obscured within oneself. For Goering, meaning is not necessarily determined before a work begins, but reveals itself through the material and intuitive processes of painting and collage.
‘The things in these works inhabit the studio; the ideas behind them haunt it like ghosts.’
—Charlie Goering
