Jason Dodge's 'Cut a Door in the Wolf' at Macro Roma Blends Art and Poetry

At Macro Roma, Jason Dodge presents 'Cut a Door in the Wolf' as part of the SOLO/MULTI section. The exhibition transforms everyday discarded objects—tickets, feathers, fabrics—into a unified signifier, compelling viewers to reinterpret them beyond their original function. Dodge's practice is deeply tied to language; in 2012 he founded Fivehundred Places, a publishing house for monographs and contemporary poetry. Poet Matthew Dickman, a past collaborator, is among the authors published. Dodge explains that invention in his work arises from existing things or others' daily processes, emphasizing regeneration and critical engagement with matter. The installation invites physical traversal, challenging intellectual laziness.
