Alice Peach’s solo exhibition "Still Curly" at Iowa, New York, features a series of new sculptures constructed from popsicle sticks. These humble, mass-produced materials are transformed into modular, skeletal forms that mimic biological structures such as spines and torsos. The works are displayed in various states of tension, either splayed against the gallery walls or suspended from the ceiling to create a sense of precarious movement.
Peach’s practice highlights the potential for mundane objects to achieve formal complexity through repetitive labor and structural ingenuity. By elevating a craft-store staple into sophisticated sculptural abstractions, the exhibition explores the intersection of domestic materials and anatomical geometry, challenging the viewer's perception of fragility and industrial modularity.
