offin's work encourages the viewer to negotiate alternative modes of consciousness and acknowledge the subjectivity of science. The centerpiece of the exhibition is a greenhouse installed inside the gallery as a performance space in which musicians and sound artists communicate with plants. In this work, no attempt is made to validate the evidence that already exists to support the phenomenon that plants respond to music. Rather the performers are there simply to engage intuitively with the plants.Peter Coffin's It Chooses You, the artist's second solo exhibition at the gallery. The show is a conceptual installation of photographs and sculpture. While Coffin's previous work invoked new age theory and pseudo science to question the way we view reality, It Chooses You pursues ideas endemic to the mental and psychological landscape.

A soundtrack designed for the plants' enjoyment plays when performers are not interacting directly with the installation. Around the gallery are a series of portraits, unframed photographs of auras, resting on shelves like specimens displayed in a laboratory. The photographs are taken with a specialized Polaroid camera developed to capture auric color fields. While Coffin's installation surrounds the gallery, Ricci Albenda's suite of six "diptych." paintings delineate "cyclidromes" (words whose letters move through the alphabet in a circle) and employ Albenda's alphabetic colorization system. The Artist has created six small paintings (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple) on panel, each with the word "diptych." painted on it in the artist's own font, infusing the space with the vibration of his signature spectral wordplay.While Coffin's previous work invoked new age theory and pseudo science to question the way we view reality, It Chooses You pursues ideas endemic to the mental and psychological landscape. The show is in part a study of modernism, taking it from exclusivity and elitism, and rendering it playful and informal. Through abstractions of invisible thought processes and reinterpretations of iconic artworks, the artist invites a dialogue which considers the interplay of interpretation, memory and association.
