Debuting a new large-scale installation alongside a series of busts and bronze sculptures, ‘The Serpent’ at White Cube New York marks the latest evolution in Canadian artist David Altmejd’s interrogation and upturning of nature’s sacred hierarchies – those intrinsic yet volatile structures through which order and chaos contend. Forged through an instinct-driven process that merges realism with crude expressionism, Altmejd’s work manifests as a potent expression of the subconscious mind, wherein elemental dichotomies of man and beast, entropy and structure, growth and decay, co-mingle in an ecstatic revelation.
