Third Floor is an exploration of universal parallels and a shifting sense of identification in the emergence of ‘the other’. The exhibition expands upon a notion of siblinghood beyond a biological connection, into an inner metaphysical sensibility and rarified relationship between two or more coexisting entities.

The paintings from San Francisco based artist Seesha Takagishi create a landscape of memory and veil of solace, depicting emblems of being young and senses of home. In conjunction, Kishino Takagishi’s (Chicago, IL) drawings, paintings, and 3-d object fabrication are arranged in diptychs and sets; each employing aesthetic concepts of light, symbology, and gravity to oppose and relate to its counterparts.
Through this body of work, the Takagishi sisters unveil intimate perspectives that offer testimonies to one another’s childhood and ponder what it means to take shelter under the same roof.

Third Floor will be up from August-September 2024 at the @medicinefornightmares gallery, with an opening celebration on Saturday, August 3rd.
