Workshop and Tour at The Warehouse

Inspired by the imagery and process in works by Justin Caguiat, Mariko Mori, Emma Webster, and Kikuji Yamashita, visitors will build their own layered artwork through collage and alcohol ink painting. This event will begin in the galleries, viewing work by artists in the current exhibition, Natural Mystics, before gathering in the library for light bites, drinks, and art-making. This workshop will be led by Warehouse staff Caitlin Overton and Michael Duncan.

Registration required. You must be 21+ years to register.

Exhibition On View

Natural Mystics

September 27, 2025 - January 31, 2026

Art is never reasonable. It is not logical and has no utilitarian value. In a world obsessed with efficiency, the role of the artist is to introduce friction. The artists in Natural Mystics employ magical and otherworldly thinking that gum-up the works and create this productive friction. Drawing from both the Rachofsky and the Hartland & Mackie / Labora Collections, the exhibition gathers works made in the shadow of the wreckage of empirical reason, at a time when the systems we were taught to trust have proven to be unreliable narrators of the present moment. Across a variety of media—from paintings to aquariums—they work from places beneath language and beyond the reach of consensus. In an age intoxicated by data and driven to rationalize every impulse, these artists choose instead to listen…to dreams, to omens, to the quiet murmur beneath the noise.
