No Respite: Lucy Puls, Nick Taggart, and Connie Walsh
Foyer-LA, Los Angeles, CA
February 7-March 20, 2025
Tn FOYER-LA’s current project, No Respite, the artists Lucy Puls, Nick Taggart, and Connie Walsh embrace the fragility of transitions- the shifting tensions within a relentless state. Amy Sillman describes this condition in her book, Faux Pas. Selected Writings and Drawings as, “looking for this fragile thing that is awkwardness.” An improvisational guitar performance by Dakota Higgins, opens an opportunity to lose one’s bearings amidst pieces of disparate material assembled over great distances of time and space. No Respite asks the viewer to feel some pressure, then release, while the work collectively seeks a momentary stillness- a refuge- within unrelenting force.
