Art Wall: Xylor Jane

August 16, 2023–January 7, 2024

For BAMPFA’s Art Wall, Xylor Jane presents a pyramidal calendar organized by the fifth palindromic triangular number, 666—a number with myriad positive and negative connotations. A black grid outlines the color-coded days of the week, while hand-drawn notations mark full moons, equinoxes, and solstices to queer and cross-reference the relationship of natural cycles with European constructions of time.

Read full description
  •  An equilateral triangle made of three smaller triangles, which in turn are composed of hundreds of smaller triangles. The smallest are filled with translucent washes of color. Some have numbers inside, the letter S, or the first letters of months.
