DESCRIPTION:Jul 10 - Aug 16\, 2026\nBorn in 1977\, William Monk grew up lis
 tening to psychedelic rock from Pink Floyd and watching avant-garde films 
 like Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Those genre-bending works 
 gave way to enigmatic paintings of his own\, which rejected reality and lo
 gic and instead welcomed dreamlike visions from the depths of his own psyc
 he. Monk compared painting to “being inside a submarine\,” using repet
 ition of patterns like smoke rings and rock formations to evoke “thin pl
 aces\,” where barriers between real and spiritual worlds begin to break 
 down. With works painted in London and New York during the last five years
 \, this new exhibition builds from Monk’s desire to investigate the subc
 onscious. Anchored by a hazy color palette\, the exhibition is titled for 
 a phenomenon that sees the sky suddenly darkening\, whether from storms or
  solar eclipses\, resulting in an alienating timelessness.
