Still Possible
Group Exhibition at Prism Art Space, Sacremento, April 2026, Curated by Iso Marcus.The group exhibition Still Possible centered on the question: As things fall apart, what can we repair? What do we let disintegrate and re-compost? The idea of repair here is not about returning to an idealized past, but about partial-recuperation (Donna Haraway). How do we tend to what remains and imagine what could still emerge?
Worm School’s contribution ‘String Figure: Noded’ was a collaborative sculpture depicting a transitional point in the popular ‘Cat’s Cradle’ string figure game.
String figures represent a model of collective thinking and storytelling that is in a constant state of transformation and change.
Worm School’s noded network traced the conversations and exchanges between members of worm school, drawing from Donna Haraway’s Staying With the Trouble, a formative text shaping their practice as ‘earthworm symbionts’
Past discussion participants contributed small sculptural nodes which add points of complication, connection, and 'trouble' along our shared fibrous loop.
The reading nook featured research texts from worm school’s library, and a compost-dyed worm, the viewer was invited to sit and digest with worm school.
