“Soft Geometries, is the presentation of a solo project by New York-based conceptual artist Sanford Biggers.

At Frieze New York, Biggers unveils a survey of new vibrant sculptural quilts that defy traditional artistic boundaries. The new works included in Soft Geometries are part of Biggers’ Codex series, which are infused with a lexicon of layered histories and symbols drawn on an expansive array of references.

The Codex series include mixed media paintings and sculptures done directly on or made from pre-1900 antique quilts. This process, like linguistic code-switching, recognizes language plurality, as the quilts signal their original creator’s intent and the new layers of meaning given to them through Biggers’ artistic intervention.

Biggers uses history as a malleable material, which he repurposes
and reinterprets, connecting temporalities of the past and future in homage to the stories of objects while allowing for new conceptual possibilities – what the artists call “future ethnographies.” Materializing history, Biggers positions himself as a collaborator of the past while also examining the current sociopolitical landscape. Biggers repurposes antique quilts to explore their iconographic importance as a kind of secret language, delving into the long-debated historical narrative that such quilts signaled safe spaces along the Underground Railroad.” – @massimodecarlogallery
