ICA Miami presents “\*sk\*/ey-,” a major solo exhibition for artist Marguerite Humeau (b. 1986, France; lives in London) comprising newly commissioned sculptures and video. Presented with the support of Etant donnés, the immersive installation marks Humeau’s first large-scale institutional presentation in the US, and sees the artist experiment with form through the abstract narratives of alternative worlds. Informed by the menace of climate change, these new presences pollinate, blossom and armor, proposing a potentially inevitable mode of aerial existence in perpetual movement.
