The artist's two works Migratory Birds (A Small Horror), 2024 and Whoopsie's Dream, 2022 are part of the group exhibition exploring the concept of "home": How do people define Heimat (“home”) in the 21st century? Can you still speak of home in the singular, when concepts of home have become increasingly plural in the present time? Has home as a geographical location had its day? How do people continually form new homes for themselves?

On the occasion of Zachary Armstrong's exhibition "Encaustic House", the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati will host a roundtable discussion with the four artists on August 28th at 6PM with a reception following at the gallery from 7-9PM.

What binds these four artists is not only a close friendship but a reading of the world that involves taking what we already know and making it present in front of us.

Elsa Rouy's diptych Coronis in purple gore, produced at Sendb00ks' residency at Castello Roccasinibalda, has been published as the cover of one of six artist editions for their reissue of Ovid's Metamorphoses.

The Weston Art Gallery presents 'Encaustic House', a major immersive installation by Dayton-based artist Zachary Armstrong, on view from July 3 through August 30, 2026. The exhibition transforms the gallery into a life-sized house constructed from large encaustic paintings, inviting visitors into a richly layered exploration of childhood memory, imagination, and contemporary Americana.

Elsa Rouy’s painting Biology (2026) has been acquired by the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw (MSN). The work has been selected by the jury from the art works presented at the art fair Art Warsaw Villa Roz. This acquisition was made possible through the generous support of Towarzystwo Przyjaciół MSN.

The Score, titled after the artwork, was made in collaboration to journey and reflect the painting. The artwork and the score were made over the same period with images and sounds informing and creating the tone of each. As a result, there are 5 tracks that seamlessly blend to mirror the 5 panels of the painting. The score has previously been shown alongside Rouy's artwork at Guts Gallery in December 2024 and in her recent institutional solo show ‘Just Because’ at MCSW Elektrownia Radom, both as an immersive installation or ‘performance’. Defriez and Rouy have long anticipated releasing the score as it is such an integral part of the viewing and experience of the painting, and an artwork in its own right.
