Trained as a muralist, Zacarias took inspiration for this series from the city’s urban sites with focus on Diego Rivera’s Detroit Industry Murals-housed at the Detroit Institute of Arts. Coatlicue’s Return encapsulates Zacarias’s deeply personal engagement with Rivera’s work and the Aztec mythology depicted in his Detroit murals, in particular the goddess Coatlicue, who symbolizes constant growth, destruction, and rebirth. Zacarias seamlessly unites sculpture and painting into an energetic and vibrantly colored abstracted landscape of wall reliefs and freestanding sculptures that create a kind of three-dimensional mural that evokes the aura of particular places, landmarks, and histories. Through these works, Zacarias captures the spirit of Detroit’s distinct artistic legacy and its continued position as a hub for creativity and innovation – in ways speaking to the city as a manifestation of Coatlicue herself. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan face=\"inherit\"\u003eSee the exhibition online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/wassermanprojects.com\/fall-2018-zacarias-coatlicues-return\/\" title=\"Marela Zacarias \u0026quot;Coatlicue's Return\u0026quot; at Wasserman Projects in Detroit, MI.\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewassermanprojects.com\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WASSERMAN PROJECTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35961096568985,"sku":"","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0447\/4739\/1129\/products\/IMG_2389.jpg?v=1599622472"},{"product_id":"copy-of-click-clock-small-white","title":"Click-Clock, Small (White)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDesigner: Ayako Aratani\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eClick-Clock, Small (White)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePigmented porcelain and brass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6.5\" x 5.5\" x 1\"\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eClick-Clock is a stained porcelain timepiece made of softly sculpted lines that gently hint at the time of day.

Their large-scale public interventions and immersive environments use a variety of mediums including the “found object” and often leverage technology in ways that produce unique experiences. Their work is often epistemological in nature and explores aspects of the human condition and contemporary society while challenging reality, truth, and belief systems. Projects are often speculative in nature and are influenced by various aspects of other art movements, notably conceptual art, relational aesthetics, surrealism, and street art.

His artwork has been exhibited internationally, including the Van Abbemuseum, the Kunst-Werke Institute, Kunsthalle Wien, and the French Triennial Lille 3000: Renaissance, and nationally at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, the Smart Museum of Art, the School of the Art Institute Chicago, Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts Museum, The Mattress Factory Art Museum, the Detroit Institute of Arts, Cranbrook Art Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, the Eli and Edythe Broad Museum at MSU, and the University of Michigan Institute For The Humanities.  He has received multiple awards, including a Kresge Artist Fellowship, a Knight Foundation Arts Challenge Grant, and an Efroymson Contemporary Arts Fellowship, as well as residential grants in France, Iceland, Australia, Canada, Brazil, and throughout the United States.  He is represented by David Klein Gallery, Detroit. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCourtesy David Klein Gallery\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHocking's large scale sculpture was featured in a solo exhibition \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/wassermanprojects.com\/spring-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\" title='Scott Hocking \"Seventeen Shitty Mountains\" at Wasserman Projects - Spring 2019' rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eSeventeen Shitty Mountains\u003c\/a\u003e at Wasserman Projects in Spring of 2019. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SCOTT HOCKING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36190195220633,"sku":"","price":2800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0447\/4739\/1129\/products\/Hocking_LittleShittyWallGuy_WW.jpg?v=1600349677"},{"product_id":"little-blue-one","title":"Little Blue One, 2018","description":"Artist: Alexander Buzzalini \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eLittle Blue One, 2018\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cbr\u003ePlaster and steel \u003cbr\u003e23\" x 8\" x 10\"\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlexander Buzzalini (American, b. 1990) is a contemporary visual artist living and working in Hamtramck\/Detroit, MI. Buzzalini primarily uses paint, pencil and crayon in knowingly childish drawings on canvas with heavily worked surfaces of delirious commitment. The end result is what he calls a “painted drawing.” His current conceptual focus is on the American mythology of the Wild West. He has recently made some lamps. Buzzalini received his degree from Wayne State University. Artist Statement This new body of work is inspired by my relationships with local designers, who have influenced and broadened my attraction to objects and forms that bend the conventional rules of taste. The lamps are an extension of my sculptural practice in which I use plaster and cheese cloth to wrap or mummify structural skeletons. Considered both design works and interactive sculptures, this inaugural series is formed in reaction to mid-century modernist aesthetics that have become a staple in contemporary life, critiquing aesthetic homogeneity and proposing modes of living beyond those furnished by Ikea. Materially, the lamps are imperfect. They submit to the idiosyncrasies of their materials rather than impose order on them. This series of works embraces expression over function, intuitive irrationalities, and individual objects … each lamp is unique. The work is not symmetrical, refined or uniform. It is raw, tactile and grotesque, yet elegant in its stillful dance of lighting up the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuzzalini's sculptural works have been featured in numerous group exhibitions and performances, including \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/wassermanprojects.com\/jason-yates-friends\/\" title=\"Alexander Buzzalini @ Wasserman Projects Fall 2017\"\u003eFriends Of Friends\u003c\/a\u003e at Wasserman Projects in the fall of 2017.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ALEXANDER BUZZALINI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36190241587353,"sku":"","price":900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0447\/4739\/1129\/products\/N_IMG_2526copy.jpg?v=1600352133"},{"product_id":"click-clock-large-white","title":"Click-Clock, Large (White)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDesigner: Ayako Aratani\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eClick-Clock, Large (White)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePigmented porcelain and brass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9.5\" x 1\" x 8.5\"\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eClick-Clock is a stained porcelain timepiece made of softly sculpted lines that gently hint at the time of day.

The names she remembered intrigued me: lapis, turmeric, certain flowers, crushed snails, saffron, cobalt. They brought to mind a preciousness I felt lacking, in substance and in material. I played scientist - painstakingly experimenting with each pigment to find the proper binder to create stable watercolors. Still, I sometimes I wet my paper and brushed the powered pigment straight onto the surface. The normal push and pull between control and mayhem, common in wet-on-wet technique, became magnified. The pigments seemed to shoot through the water and over the page as the water destroyed the rigidity of the paper, modifying and destabilizing any boundary it encountered. The result was lusciously unpredictable. As I maneuver these pools of pigment and water into recognizable forms, I do so undoubtedly from the vantage of a woman. After all, I inhabit this body, in this climate. I am drawn to something uninhibited in certain images of intimacy, sex, fetishism, devastation, medical imagery and joy. In each I find a familiar flicker of the struggle between control and mayhem. Usually it is not the actual \"thing\" that I am drawn to, but rather the effect produced. In turn, when I reproduce theses images, having always preferred psychological drama to the pictorial, I am more focused on the act of revealing than providing specific explanations.
