The Sensual World

Each year, fans of Kate Bush from all corners of the world get together around the time of her birthday, July 30th, and celebrate her life and achievements. Synchronicity Space is pleased to present, “The Sensual World”, a tribute to the artist and her work. Kate Bush seamlessly blends many forms of art into her work, be they musical, visual or dance. Her music videos are innovations to the genre, predating MTV, and capture not just the spirit of a song but the very essence of an artist. Unafraid to branch out experimentally, her music is as grotesque as it is graceful, showing that beauty is multi-faceted and mysterious. Kate Bush continues to be an inspiration and to this group of nine artists, a direct one. The selection of work in this exhibition recreates this eclectic feel, further exploring the vivid setting created in Kate Bush's music, and brings the viewer into the Sensual World.


Artists include

Greg Carideo

Eric T. Carlson

Ryan S. Carr

Allegra M. Denton

Katelyn Reece Farstad

Isa Newby Gagarin

Joseph Lunders

Nathan Meagher

Raychel Steinbach

Curated by Joseph Gillette

"The Sensual World" Exhibition will run from July 12th - July 25th. On July 12th we will kick-off the celebration with a reception for the artists featuring a live musical tribute by Warm Climate and Queen Victoria. Special events throughout the month including rare video and musical performances will take place. Please email info@syncspacela.com for more information.

HUNTERS AND GATHERERS ZINE LAUNCH


We are so excited about this!
Helga and Andrew of METAL ROUGE are putting out the first issue of their zine, "hunters and gatherers" - on their label seymour records. The Zine will have unusual stories, music reviews, cave-like drawings, raw blurbs, poetry, and artifacts of primitive substance. Each issue will include a 3" CDr of a live band performance. The band featured in the first issue will be VIBES who was the first band to break in our space at the opening of "Ancient Bloody Knuckles".
Also, the records from "Within Heaven's Earshot" will still be on display so anyone not able to make it to the closing will get a chance to see the exhibition before we tediously take down the 300+ albums.
