The Spiral
Established in 2023 by Emery Gluck, The Spiral is a series of interdisciplinary installations exploring the phenomena of spiraling. It exists as a secret art space in Los Angeles and abroad.
Conversations with the viewers at The Spiral no. 1 formulate the themes for The Spiral no. 2, and the chain continues. The series takes the shape of a spiral, as does each individual exhibition. Everything connects.
The Spiral began with a curiousity of what breaks open inside a spiral and what a shift in perspective of the typically “negative” experience of spiraling can offer. This project is an invitation for the viewer to tilt their gaze, re-imagine the direction of a spiral, and become curious about what embracing time inside of it can reveal. The artwork inside The Spiral installations is designed to encourage a longer, deeper type of looking than one’s inclination might be. The work prompts the viewer to spend time in The Spiral and to see themselves in the art.
