Join us in celebration of Mariana Castillo Deball: Feathered Changes, Serpent Disappearances in the Walter and McBean Galleries. This exhibition is the culmination of the inaugural artist-in-residence of the SFAI + Kadist Fellowship.
A flexible architectural intervention will snake through the galleries, threading together sculptures inspired by disparate archaeological artifacts layered with contemporary interventions by the artist. A pre-Mayan feathered serpent, ceremonial Mimbres pottery, and Teotihuacan mural fragments from the M. H. de Young Museum are filtered through Deball’s chance-based, artistic score.
