“Everything and More,” is artist Rachel Rose’s exhibition, which opened in November 2015 in a corner gallery just off the Stella extravaganza at the new Whitney.
“When I first came back to Earth after 128 days in space,” the astronaut David Wolf intones while pools of cosmic substances shift on screen, “I thought I had ruined my life … because gravity felt so heavy.”
Built around Wolf’s recollections of spacewalking above Earth on the Mir Space Station in the ‘90s, the video is a sensory feast – fluid, curious collages include a layer of footage with Aretha Franklin’s voice manipulated by Rose to enhance the viewer’s experience.
On view through February 7, 2016 at New York’s Whitney Museum of Art, 99 Gansevoort Street.
