Aberrant Plexus

Zoetica Ebb at Metamorphika Studio
November 20 – December 14, 2025

Announcing Aberrant Plexus, an immersive exhibition by Zoetica Ebb in cooperation with Peachthief at Metamorphika Studios.

For three weeks, Ebb and Peachthief transform the gallery into a living research site at IPGL (The Institute For Psychogametous Life) where an alien mycelium infiltrates walls, bodies, and psyche. Rooted in Zoetica’s ongoing engagement with the natural world and speculative biology, the project builds on themes first introduced in her book Chimeric Herbarium and the short film Galea Displodo Interaction. At Metamorphika, a space dedicated to interconnection, Ebb expands this research into an interactive environment with sound by Takatsuna Mukai, where visitors encounter a rogue fungal intelligence that dissolves the borders of individuality.

The living network extends further. Guest tattoo artists, working as pollinators, translate Ebb’s specimens directly onto the skin of visitors. What begins as a static image on the wall evolves into a mobile, living extension of its recipient.

As part of the exhibition, Japanese avant-garde author, Kenji Siratori, unleashes Xenopoetic Report of Arthropod Vectors. Building on Zoetica Ebb’s concept of psychogametous lifeforms, Siratori’s new book stages language as a mutagenic entity propagating across species, media, and temporalities.

AUXILIARY PROTOCOLS

***CRASH SEQUENCE* // *NOVEMBER 20***

Body artists Fung Neo and Laboranta stage a research procedure gone awry.

Visionary choreographer Charlie Jimenez summons hybrid creatures from Chimera – the world from which the mycelium first emerged. Ritual and collapse erupt through movement, an embodied transmission of crash, contamination, and rebirth that pulls the audience into the living core of Aberrant Plexus.

***SLIME SUNDAY // SPECTACLE + LIFE DRAWING* // *NOVEMBER 23***

A laboratory experiment in collapse. This life-drawing session invites you to witness organism and host merge as slime entwines with models Séverine and Miss White. Mutating in real time, these protoplasmic bodies refuse capture.

SPORE TRANSMISSION // DECEMBER 13

Aberrant Plexus culminates with an eco-futurist soundscape by Latvian experimental artist, Waterflower. Performing with living mushroom instruments, she channels the voices of the mycelium in a transformative sonic work. The following day, she returns to the gallery to lead a mushroom-music workshop and give an artist talk.

More TBA.

Aberrant Plexus positions art as organism, fed by the participation of visitors and the wider Metamorphika community. Informed by speculative ecology and emergent forms of regenerative consciousness, the project asks: what does it mean to be human when our future is irreducibly symbiotic?

Art in the Crypt - Electric Soiree in the Wake of Cosmic Bedlam

July 30, 2018 in Appearance, Exhibit, Alien Botany, Available Works

Saturday marked the eve of my first London exhibition. Just one day after a mind-zapping blood moon eclipse, eight artists gathered in the winding crypt at St Pancras to share their work in a spectrally atmospheric environment.

In addition to this being my first London show, this was the first time in the years I've been developing Alien Botany, that I've exhibited it as one body of work. The setting couldn't have been better, with centuries-old brick and moulting paint subtly complementing the shades of cream and red in my pieces.

Yours truly amidst Interaction Tables 1 and 2

The crypt has a sense of silence, too, that seemed to stick around even when it filled with echoing voices and laughter. Despite the night's electric atmosphere, I felt my work was truly seen.

This was a uniquely gratifying way to present this series visually: within three airy archways in the crypt's central row, which allowed viewers to get close and take time. That feeling of silence let me describe what I've been working on without having to raise my voice too much, or to contend for the listener's focus.

It was a true delight to be able to introduce my work in Europe in this manner, and to be able to have so many stimulating conversations all in one night. My hat's off to The Hellfire Club, who sponsored the event, for bringing everything and everyone together amidst significant cosmic activity - it was an objectively unforgettable evening, as well as a personal milestone for me.

With that, I'm packing a suitcase and setting off on a birthday escapade to the British wilderness for a reset and a much-needed digital detox. A massive thanks to everyone who came to the exhibit!

Paris! I'm taking part in the upcoming 100 OEUVREs à 100 EUROS exhibit at the wondrous Cabinet des Curieux. I've been following this unusual space for nearly a decade, enticed by its crimson walls and the mix of unusual art and artefacts on display – I suspect my work will feel right at home there.

If you're in Paris on Thursday, June 1, don't miss the opening reception and a chance to explore Le Cabinet between 4 and 10PM at 12 passage Verdeau, map below.

The exhibit closes on June 17th.
