Thats When Love Just Swallows You Whole, Right. Now.
April 4 - May 2, 2026
When Sylevester sings ‘you make me feel mighty real’ (and you might want to take a minute to call him up from the world of the dead that is YouTube to listen to the message again), he is taking an object relations position.
- Olivia Laing, Everybody: A Book about Freedom
“I believe that objects, particularly the ones we hold on to out of memory sake, have the potential to keep us intact. It’s in their capacity to hold that in a way create the form of what it is so often difficult to render. In the past two to three years I’ve experienced several moves and solo trips, in a constant flux state, it’s hard to keep track of the things. I want all my stuff together in one place, but it just isn’t possible. I wanted this work, this show to be that place – like an alter. I make the altar to keep the relationships alive, or to mourn their death.”

Altostraat
April 4 - May 2, 2026
Altostraat is both a fictional place and a way of seeing. This mini-exhibition by Diana H. Chu showcases drawings inspired by cloud formations and the cult of the object. Chu's drawings are sequenced into risograph-printed art books. Her narratives explore material worship, friendship, and ephemerali.

We are thrilled to announce our first Artist in Residence with Diana H. Chu
Diana H. Chu (b. 1990) is a first-generation Chinese American artist based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Chu deconstructs and reimagines her subject matter in colored pencil, arranging familiar objects next to ancient relics and imagined creatures on paper. She merges incongruous timelines to introduce a mythic perspective. Her cut-and-paste aesthetic develops her ideas of shifting selfhood, using the vernacular of collage to put her identity directly in conversation with time, belonging, and representation.
Chu’s compositionally dense images were developed from living in Hong Kong for ten years (1998–2008). By what she leaves out of an image, Chu questions how personal history is erased. Chu’s drawings are arranged in sequential narratives and Risograph printed in limited color palettes of 1–4 colors. Her prints are hand-bound into visual art books. Chu employs the Risograph to help blur the line between canonical fine art media and ones co-opted from corporate environments.
