Outer space-inspired sculptures reckon with the structures of suburbia

In our age of "polycrisis," wherein multiple seismic events occur simultaneously, how do we visualize our place in a world that is no longer recognizable? If Today Were Tomorrow reimagines what it means to inhabit a planet. Shifting between notions of home--as an architecture, a neighborhood, a world or a feeling--American artist Olivia Erlanger (born 1990) continues her decade-long disruption of what she refers to as the "semiotics of suburbia," or the symbols and myths of suburban life. In this new body of work, the artist expands our understanding of home as a planetary cosmos, containing not only houses but also their interiors and surrounding infrastructure. If Today Were Tomorrow documents Erlanger's debut solo museum exhibition in the US, showcasing her sculptures, film and installation-based work. It includes essays on her work by authors Chris Kraus and Mark von Schlegell.
