Calendar Pick: Adam Void

Multidisciplinary artist Adam Void is influenced by folk tales, freight trains and mistakes. The Black Mountain, NC resident’s recent series, “Disposable Society,” was planned prior to Hurricane Helene, but in its wake Void has curated the show to reflect some of the imagery and feeling associated with the disaster, particularly the region’s vulnerability and the trash and debris left behind after the water drained. The work heavily incorporates typography and collage elements atop weathered paper and cardboard surfaces. While Void’s art has been included in many prestigious venues and publications, he says, “You would be just as likely to come across one of my pieces in a Southern gas station bathroom or the tape deck of an eccentric recluse.” This closing event will also feature a musical performance by Void, with a catalog that runs on circuit bent electronics and out of tune guitars.

WHO: Adam Void
WHEN: Thursday, Oct. 24, 6 p.m.
