Kunstverein München presents exhibitions by Matt Browning and Dorothea Lasky

All Woodcarvings Remain Slow Motion Mobiles suggests a paradox at the center of Matt Browning’s work in wood. Objects that appear fixed and inert are in fact the result of prolonged movement—weeks of repeated cutting and carving—and remain subject to the wood’s own slow movement over time. What appears as stillness is not the absence of motion but its residue, a form temporarily stabilized through sustained physical engagement. Since 2013, Browning has worked steadily in carving. The exhibition brings together works produced during this time, all carved in Douglas fir. All of the works take the form of chain-link carvings cut from a single piece of wood, through which interior voids, grids, and frames emerge without assembly. Rather than constructing space from separate parts, material is removed until space grows from the block
