CONSENT/DISSENT, [ALT+SPACE]’s inaugural exhibition, is a group exhibition that examines the experiences of straight and queer women through the lens of the nation's current sociopolitical climate. This exhibition investigates the emotional labor demanded of women within our society and the discursive, rhetorical, and visual construction of women. Crucially, CONSENT/DISSENT is a testimony of agency. Recent events have once again brought generations of abuse into focus. The exhibition itself acts as a direct response to these events, bringing together artists whose work explores these issues and amplifies the voice of resistance.

WE’RE BAAAAACK!!!
Much like the poltergeist from the feature film Poltergeist 2, in person events are back! Because scheduling is scary enough, Silver Space is here to help. Behold, our virtual baby - The Events Calendar - revived by popular demand. Here you can find out when the next gallery opening is, where you can hear free artist talks, and even what you missed out on because you didn’t check the calendar like you should have in the first place. Shame!
If you have an exhibition, event, artist talk, opening, or something tangentially associated, email marinam@silverspacestl.com and we’ll do our best to get you on!
