Evoking feelings of anticipation, marked both by waiting for something to happen and waiting for something not to happen, Still Air entangles hope and fear together. Inspired physically by water infrastructure and spatially by architectural enclosures such as courtyards, this installation offers a slowing of time and room for contemplation. The precariousness of everyday life is present in materials that can melt, seep away, or evaporate into thin air.
Bean Fundraiser — Celebrate articule's 45th anniversary & Support the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund!
To help articule celebrate its 45th anniversary, Diyar Mayil is generously donating her beans! Each copper bean was individually hand-cut and assembled, created specifically for her installation, Still Air. You can have a bean by making a 30$ (suggested) donation through articule’s donation page - be sure to write “Beans” in the message box of the donation form.
Half of the proceeds will support articule’s 45th anniversary fundraiser, and half will be donated to the Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund. Beans can be picked up at the gallery on May 24th, the last day of the exhibition.

Statement In Solidarity : articule
The articule team recently had a discussion about the active involvement of its center in terms of engagement in social justice. As a center that has a mandate to be constantly engaged, we want to share the various injustices affecting the multiple communities that make up our ecosystem. With this in mind, we have decided to create a living document where everyone can share links of support and action.
