Noah Travis Phillips
a site in echo / Warm Adventure Episode (Memory/ies)
(unsolicited digital exhibition) May to September 2020


(as if @) ailageR ne nreG, a site in echo / Warm Adventure Episode (Memory/ies), a digital/virtual unsolicited exhibition with the gallery and installation of images from Noah Travis Phillips' private media archive. Phillips creates multi-centered collage and montage that spans scale and size including drawings, books, websites, posters, installation. Phillips has had dozens of exhibitions.
a site in echo / Warm Adventure Episode (Memory/ies) gathers a body of images from Phillips’ intimate archives, and creates a narrative ecology of ideas across thresholds, activating rhythms throughout the space, and responding to the forms of the gallery, and its “garden-level” subterranean location. The installation is further energized through a dialogue that Phillips cultivates with books in Aeon bookstore. Phillips has a long history with books; Phillips and his wife (epic psychedelic nature painter) Jennifer Lord have a substantial personal library full of unique and rare books, Phillips previously worked at a local used bookstore, their wife has been a bookseller and is a librarian.
Phillips' practice (which they refer to as 'praxis') engages conceptual countermeasures and theoretical experiments to develop worlds of imagery and media with emergent themes, often incorporating the posthuman, anthropocene, and personal mythology.
Mythological and metaphysical notions illuminate themes of life and death, evolution and hybridity, remix and cosmology.
The exhibition is also informed by the continuing experience of coronavirus as an anthropocene event, thinking about virtual presence, everything being on pause and nothing existing, wisdom and who do I become in isolation? looks to ecology and crystals as inspiring models.

a site in echo / Warm Adventure Episode (Memory/ies) is the artist’s first exhibition at the gallery!
