The Swan's Script III: Rachel Cope, Sarah Alice Moran, Max Razdow, Dana Sherwood

DIMIN is pleased to present _The Swan's Script III,_ an exhibition curated by The Sphinx, featuring work by Rachel Cope, Sarah Alice Moran, Max Razdow, and Dana Sherwood. The exhibition will be on view from Thursday, August 8th to Friday, August 28th, 2026. _The Swan's Script III_ is the third exhibition in the series curated by The Sphinx. _The Swan's Script_ draws inspiration from Hilma af Klint's _The Swan_ series (1914–1915), a progression of swan paintings. The exhibition imagines the swan less as an emblem than as a switching device, allowing form to pivot, digress and multiply with devotion — from figuration to abstraction — through an array of narrative and plotless utterances. The symbol of the swan disguising, doubling, and mirroring its own image may be framed as a euphemism of transformation in an otherwise continuous being, as portrayed between Acts II and III of Swan Lake, when the principal dancer changes costume to transfigure from Odette to Odile. The swans in af Klint's paintings present a play of opposites, quadrants, and alchemical forms; similarly, M.C. Escher's _Swan_ (1956) wood engravings evoke computational formats and patterning through swan shadows, jagged plumage, and infinity loops. _The Swan's Script_ aims to capture a language that opens itself to phenomenological potentials, interweaving birds and abstraction, creating persuasions that curve and fold as poetics. _The Swan's Script III_ will take place in DIMIN's Living Room concurrently with _Blizzard_ in the main gallery from August 6th to 28th, 2026
