Matt Rebholz & Terra Goolsby: The New Flesh

December 06 - January 04,2020

ICOSA Collective presents The New Flesh The New Flesh is an exhibition of new artwork by artists Matt Rebholz and Terra Goolsby. Integrating 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional media such as paper, guash, ink, cast plastic, and fur, this collection of interdimensional work examines the terrenes and forms of speculative fiction. This array of intimate pieces offers encounters with bodily and terrestrial alternatives for an uncertain future. The New Flesh meditates on notions of transfiguration, intracorporeal transit, and planetary departure. Terra Goolsby is a multi-media artist that draws upon mythologies, mysticism, science fiction, religious lore, and psychology. Her work connects old narratives and new cultural assessments of female sexuality while investigating the integration of creation and destruction, interiority and exteriority, collectivity and singularity, as well as strength and vulnerability. Terra Goolsby holds an MFA in Sculpture from the Rhode Island School of Design. She has been an artist in residence at West Dean College in England, Vermont Studio Center, and I-Park Foundation. Her work has been exhibited internationally. She continues to work and live in Austin, Texas. Matt Rebholz is an artist and educator from Austin, TX where he is a Full-Time Lecturer at Texas State University. He has shown nationally and internationally, recently exhibiting work at the Southwest School of Art in San Antonio, TX, the O Gallery in Tehran, Iran, and the Bulgarian Triennial of Graphic Art in Sofia, Bulgaria. He is currently working on a psychedelic sci-fi graphic novel titled The Astronomer.
