Tuleste Factory| Opening October 20
Tuleste Factory, the Chelsea, New York-based fine art and collectible design gallery unveils Dreamscapes + Mindscapes, two coinciding solo exhibitions during the second week of October 2022. The shows see two artists expose the elusive nature of the inner psyche. Although both artists draw from surrealist theories, each takes a vastly different approach in exploring the inner workings of the mind. The main Tuleste Factory room presents “Dreamscapes” a solo show by photographer Abi Polinsky. The show sees the photographer translate his subconscious into materiality. The Beige Room presents “Mindscapes," an exhibition by new Tuleste Factory artist Lyora Pissarro in collaboration with The Allaux Brothers. This symbiosis combines new technology with traditional techniques to explore the fluctuating nature of internal and external landscape.

Cuffie took the photographs in his late 20s and early 30s when he was first living on his own and coming into himself as an artist. The diverse execution of the images speaks to a youthful divergence and confluence of influences from other photographers he was looking at during the time. Considering the range of images selected for the exhibition, Marcus Cuffie notes that through the variety, they sought to extract a common thread in the informal nature of the women’s gazes, at ease and intimately looking toward the viewer, towards the lens of their father. “To more closely examine the intention of my father’s work, I wanted this first show to tighten its focus on one theme. These images occupy a narrow window in the 40 years my father was taking pictures, but they represent a charged period of discovery in his work.”

Speaking with Light: Contemporary Indigenous Photography is one of the first major museum surveys to explore the practices of Indigenous photographers working over the past three decades. Featuring works by more than 30 contemporary Indigenous photographers, the exhibition highlights the historically underrepresented views and voices of Indigenous communities. The works aim to shift power dynamics and bring attention to misrepresentations by focusing on Indigenous perspectives, exploring themes of history, loss, identity, and representation.
