5th book. “My Knife Collection and Other Subjects of Desire.” preorder september 10, publication november 17 @smingsmingbooks ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ 14 years of lawless, feral, wet, weird orphans that belonged nowhere have now arranged themselves around a spine. this is the orphanage for my deviant writing: spells, fables, devotionals, séances, curses, omens, pilgrimages, litanies, inheritances from six artists and one mystic, and a play. ⁣ ⁣ this one is for the freaks, obviously. link in bio.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ book cover designed by the one and only vivian sming⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ image of me designed and directed by sadia quddus⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣, photographed by dougal henken⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ @sadiaaa⁣⁣⁣⁣ @decreation_studio⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ [image description in alt text] 01 Jan 1970

Opening September 19 𝘑𝘰𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘢 𝘏𝘦𝘥𝘷𝘢: 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘔𝘺 / 𝘍𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘌𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘺 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘔𝘺 / 𝘍𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘌𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘺 is Johanna Hedva’s (@bighedva) first institutional exhibition in New York. Devoted to deviant forms of knowledge, Hedva’s practice moves between sculpture, installation, video, writing, and sound. Time functions as a primary material in the exhibition—from a mouthblown glass vessel that slowly drains black goo until it is empty, to a new 20-foot robotic sculpture that spins and tangles ribbon. Works take shape through duration: leaking, sagging, knotting, and giving way. Together they compose an erotics of gravity, asking what beauty becomes when decay is not resisted but allowed to run its course. Save the date for the opening celebration on Saturday, September 19 from 4–7pm! 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘔𝘺 / 𝘍𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘌𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘺 is curated by Pablo José Ramírez (@pablojoseramirez). —— Graphic: The Rodina (@therodina) 28 Jul 2026

the moon is full in taurus and unfortunately i have an announcement. i’ve been summoning a writing coven for two years, and now it seems to be summoning itself. there are ten days left to join. ⁣we start on november 5.⁣ ⁣ it’s a writing class but also an astrology class but also a class on how to practice witchcraft but also a mutual aid society for the cosmically afflicted and maybe a way of giving your demons gainful employment. there will be spells, experiments, literary misconduct, disobedient sentences, and some light necromancy (which is basically what writing is anyway).⁣⁣ ⁣ this is the only full-length writing class i’ve taught all year and my 1:1 astrology readings are booked through january, so i’d love to see you in this portal. tbh this venus retrograde is making a wreck of me. i think being in a room together might help us remember that fate doesn’t have to be a story given to you without a rigorous edit.⁣ ⁣ we’re officially focusing on libra, scorpio, and sagittarius, but we’ll look at all the signs generally. if this is not your sun sign, it’s probably most certainly some other planet in your chart—or your ex’s. ⁣ ⁣ and signing up gets you access to all the materials from my previous classes on aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, leo, and virgo.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ bring your ghosts. we’ll give them something to do.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 🐦‍⬛ link in bio ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ image designed and directed by Sadia Quddus⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ photographed by Dougal Henken ⁣⁣⁣ @sadiaaa @decreation_studio 01 Jan 1970

a post for the inimitable @diegomontoyastudio who made the custom headpiece aligned with my new sculpture “soft death mommy,” for my solo exhibition at @cara_the_org “gravity, my / favorite enemy.” ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ i wrote to diego and said i wanted to look like grace jones in philip treacy, meets leonor fini, meets the bene gesserit reverend mother if she were a dominatrix—and of course he knew exactly what to do. ⁣⁣it has two masks—one lace, one rubber tubing—for my fits of rick and comme.⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ a match made in heaven, love you diego. 19 Oct 2026

Walkthrough and Listening Session with Johanna Hedva (@bighedva) I Saturday, October 24 at 4pm 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘔𝘺 / 𝘍𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘌𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘺 is Johanna Hedva’s first institutional exhibition in New York. Bringing together time-based installation and video, newly produced sculptural wall paintings, and a large-scale kinetic sculpture, the exhibition composes an erotics of gravity, asking what beauty becomes when decay is not resisted but allowed to run its course. After the walkthrough, Hedva will play tracks from their 2021 album 𝘉𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘔𝘰𝘰𝘯 𝘓𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘯 𝘗𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 4𝘵𝘩 𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦. Mystical doom, hag blues, confrontationally pure, the album is a solo electric guitar and voice performance that is as much a cathartic grief purge as it is a droned-out metal colossus that summons the holy spirit.

Now On View | 𝘑𝘰𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘢 𝘏𝘦𝘥𝘷𝘢: 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘔𝘺 / 𝘍𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘌𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘺 September 19—December 13, 2026 Artist Johanna Hedva’s (@bighedva) work reveals bodies as permeable, continually shaped by forces beyond their control. Through video, sound, and newly commissioned sculptures and a kinetic installation, the exhibition rehearses surrender as a practice, considering how objects transform when caught between gravity’s downward pull and time’s inevitable passage. The presence of these invisible forces is divined through the marks left on skins and skeletons, surfaces and structures. Time functions as a primary material in the exhibition—from 𝘚𝘰𝘧𝘵 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘔𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘺, a new 20-foot robotic sculpture that spins and tangles ribbon, to a mouthblown glass vessel that slowly drains black goo until it is empty. Works take shape through duration: leaking, sagging, knotting, and giving way. CARA is free and open to the public Wednesday through Saturday, 11am–6pm, and Sunday, 12–6pm.

my solo exhibition “gravity, my / favorite enemy” is open @cara_the_org from now through december 13. it is three rooms, with the entire second floor given over to new work made this year. i have been waiting a long time to put you in these rooms. the show began dreaming itself in october 2023, when death moved at several scales at once. there was the long catastrophe that became newly catastrophic for palestine—and my beloved grandmother 할머니 died, after many years of alzheimer’s, on october 10, and the shinbyeong 신병 set in. i made two new paintings but nothing in them answers to paint. the paint was grown on the body, offered to a god, cut from the head, and sold by the inch. i thought a long time about frames and finally decided to burn mine. I’m Not Punished by What You Like to Be Punished by, 2026 charred wood, jersey, Indian temple hair, fish hooks, embroidery floss, knife, goose feathers, glue I’ll Take More, 2026 charred wood, Indian temple hair, bookbinding thread, piano string, luna moth, cello tuning peg, urethral sound CARA is always free and open wednesday–saturday 11am–6pm and on sunday 12–6pm. it is wheelchair accessible, and all exhibition spaces and restrooms are accessible via the elevator. masks and audio description are provided at the front. installation view of johanna hedva: gravity, my / favorite enemy, center for art, research and alliances (cara), new york, 2026. photo by zach hyman 26 Sep 2026
