They invoke the body as a site of haunting, wounding, conjuring and mythmaking. Communing with insects, aquatic vertebrates, relics, ceremonial objects—messengers of the sacred and the underworld—they engage their practice as psychic archaeology, unearthing eros and loss within the physical and the metaphysical. Their video works have been shown at Anthology Film Archives, Microscope Gallery, Vox Populi Gallery, CROSSROADS presented by San Francisco Cinematheque, Hong Kong Arthouse Film Festival, among others. Their photography has been featured on It’s Nice That, Whitehot Magazine and Lomography Magazine. Gong received their BFA from Parsons School of Design and their MA at the New School for Social Research. They are based in Brooklyn, NY. https://morrisongong.com/About A4’s Town HallTown Hall is A4’s bi-monthly community gathering event that features presentations, pitches, and power networking over a potluck meal.

This event is free with museum admission.Join us for a guided walking tour of the exhibitions Edward Burtynsky: The Great Acceleration and Sheida Soleimani: Panjereh, led by a museum educator.About the ExhibitionsEdward Burtynsky: The Great Acceleration The first solo institutional exhibition of world-renowned photographer Edward Burtynsky’s work in New York City in over twenty years, The Great Acceleration reveals the depth of Burtynsky's investigation into the human alteration of natural landscapes around the world, revealing both their present fragility and enduring beauty.This retrospective features over seventy photographs—including many of Burtynsky’s landmark images, some never before exhibited—alongside three ultra high-resolution murals and a visual and narrative timeline of his creative life. The Great Acceleration serves as both an urgent call for environmental awareness and an invitation to appreciate the sublimity that persists in the landscape, deepening our understanding of the global challenges we face today.Sheida Soleimani: Panjereh In Panjereh, Soleimani uses her family’s history—specifically her parents' flight from Iran as political refugees following the 1979 revolution—as a framework for exploring how meaning and memory are shaped by migration.Known for her studio-based constructions that layer photographs, props, live animals, and her parents into magical realist tableaus, Soleimani expands this approach in Panjereh while also debuting a new body of work: a series of close-up analogue photographs of injured birds. These works draw from her practice as a federally licensed wildlife rehabilitator and founder of Congress of the Birds, a care tradition she inherited from her mother.In these new images, Soleimani draws attention to the plight of migratory birds, many of whom are wounded on their journeys through populated areas, using them as metaphors for the social, political, and environmental barriers faced by displaced people around the world. The exhibition also includes a new site-specific wall drawing created especially for ICP’s galleries.
