“The exhibition will be comprised of two bodies of work: Several work on paper using graphite, oil stick and correction fluid to document Life Forms, locations, equipment and events; and a single large-scale sculpture, DEFEND_Station, that will be comprised of numerous elements from the studio, such as Floating Heads, time-collectors, blockers and shivs. The range of PEET’s media demonstrate his resourcefulness, yet however divergent the materials and processes, ultimately they filter and record PEET’s perceptive intake of transmissions of current information and socio- political views of production and consumption.”

“This is a list taken directly from one of the drawings. The show is first and foremost about drawing and being able to get images and ideas out of my head in a clear and direct way. The drawings show and hold this energy,” states PEET
