Dissolving Margins

Dissolving Margins, a two-person exhibition featuring sculpture by Julia Haft-Candell and recent paintings by Maria Kozak will show at Dreamsong, 1237 4th St. NE, through Monday, Dec. 12. The exhibition title references an Italian term central to Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan Novels ‘smarginatura,’ translated as ‘dissolving margins’ by Ann Goldstein, and described as “the sensation of moving a few fractions of a second into a person or a thing or a number of a syllable, violating its edges.” Julia Haft-Candell (b. 1982, Oakland, Calif.) lives and works in Los Angeles. Maria Kozak (b. 1981, Krakow, Poland) is an artist living and working between upstate New York and Krakow, Poland.
