What would we do if our world was annihilated? And who will we be after we emerge from the ruins? Prescient questions turn into laced with a dystopian doom in Josh Kline’s ‘Local weather Change’ exhibition, the fourth chapter in a collection of works contemplating the tip of the world by immersive science-fiction installations. Initially conceived in 2018, and at the moment on present at LA’s Museum of Modern Artwork, Kline produced the vast majority of the works through the pandemic, which for him grew to become a catastrophic foretelling of the outcomes of a broken-down society. Right here he brings his apocalyptic visions to life by the mediums of sculpture, transferring photos and pictures.

‘Kline’s work is layered, meticulous, and important in its clear articulation of the issues of the current day and the way they may impression human life within the close to future,’ says Rebecca Lowery, MOCA affiliate curator. ‘We’re honoured to have supported the manufacturing of a number of new artworks for this exhibition, and thrilled to share the artist’s venture with MOCA’s various audiences inside and out of doors of Los Angeles, a metropolis that has performed a major function within the creativeness of this saga.’
‘Josh Kline: Local weather Change’ is on present till 5 January at MOCA
