Stephen Friedman Gallery presents ‘It only takes a minute’, a new UK solo exhibition by Jim Hodges. Through materials, images, forms and gestures, reflecting on intimacy, history, values and casuality, Hodges invites an enquiry into our relationship to time, its measures, and meanings.
Extending through the gallery, composed of found materials, carved marble and oil painting, in varied ranges of scale and tonality, this new work resonates with whimsy, humility, foreboding and mystery to highlight themes of beauty, fragility and impermanence.
Rendered in painted bronze and white marble, the familiar, modest gathering of intimate belongings to be discovered in Craig’s closet have been captured in time. Even as they speak of the specific world, and the specific life in which these objects – clothing, keepsakes, closed forever containers – were brought together, they seem to now transcend their temporal materiality.
