SCOTT CARTER: SHIFTLESS

Neue Welt / 507 Hagan St., Studio C September 7 - October 19th

Scott Carter

Neue Welt is pleased to present Shiftless by Memphis-based artist Scott Carter, running from September 7th to October 19th, 2024. The exhibition features a recent series of beer bottle assemblages that reflect a new direction in Carter's studio practice, emphasizing introspection and the idiosyncrasies of his identity as a maker. These clear glass vessels, devoid of labels, capture specific moments through their arrangement and transformation, symbolizing the passage of time and Carter's experience with procrastination and uncertainty. Incorporating functional electronics and electro-acoustic elements, the work emphasizes the passage of time through the interplay of sound and structure. Shiftless opens on September 7th during the Wedgewood-Houston Art Crawl.
