Daniel Wiener's Epoxy Clay Faces at Satchel Projects

exhibition · 2026-05-22

Daniel Wiener's exhibition 'Out in Front of the Back of Beyond' at Satchel Projects in New York runs through May 30, 2026. The show features sculptures made from epoxy clay and dispersed pigment that present distorted facial features, exploring intimacy and the psychoanalytic theories of Donald Winnicott. Wiener works 'blind' by pressing material into molds without seeing the result until demolding days or weeks later. Works include 'Polyphony Beyond the Baton's Thrust' (2025), a freestanding piece with buttresses and coils, and 'Half Dissolving,' a wall-hung rectangle with recognizable eyes, nose, and mouth. Other pieces like 'Clutching' are described by Wiener as 'Sculpture | Like: Bowl | Placed: On A Shelf.' The exhibition is curated by Satchel Projects at 526 West 26th Street, #913.
