Curated by Micah Mermilliod in partnership with The Do Good Fund, this exhibition celebrates ways of being, the familiar and unexpected alike. Through the lenses of these photographers, history and modernity intersect, and the ordinary becomes extraordinary. While not always traditionally beautiful, the allure, honesty, and unpredictability found in these everyday moments resonates like jazz through humid Southern air.

Fonder’s newest video installation, Non Sequitur, meditates on cycles of ideas, life, and physical materials. In it, she explores entropy, the cyclical patterns of nature as well as the messiness of a lark, or unexpected turn. The term ‘non sequitur’ translates from Latin to mean “it does not follow.” Embracing this ethos, this installation reflects fractured roving thoughts and mirrors the futile effort to ‘keep it together’. Through the animated duplication of her sculptural works, she invites viewers to reflect on how the sausage is made–within her work and beyond.
