QUEUE Gallery in Miami is presenting 'Evidence of Evolution,' a two-person exhibition featuring Fharid LaTorre’s hand-carved wood and metal sculptures alongside Jamieson Pearl’s oil-on-linen paintings. LaTorre’s works, such as 'showing slivers & taking off skin for sake of dopamine layer of diophantine equations' (2026), use scavenged metal and burl wood to evoke surgical transformations and bodily stress, while Pearl’s paintings depict glitch-blocked internet microcelebrities and screenshots from LiveLeak pornos, rendered freehand in distorted blocks. The show runs at QUEUE’s new location above Tunnel Projects in Miami.
The exhibition matters because it stages a dialogue between two artists exploring distortion, mediation, and the modern body’s entanglement with technology and online culture. By connecting Miami and Los Angeles—cities synonymous with plastic surgery and influencer culture—the show critiques how digital and physical structures commodify and freeze human forms. It also highlights QUEUE Gallery’s expansion into a new space, signaling continued vitality in Miami’s alternative art scene.
