David Livingston will show several totemic sculptures constructed with a mud-like composite made primarily with sawdust and branches gathered around Brooklyn. The artist builds his structures using a repetitive process of stacking twigs and applying mud to them. Evoking skyscrapers, trees, and termite mounds, the works draw a relationship between the primal underpinnings of humankind and the constructed contemporary world.
