Neolith
Alim Ringgold is an interdisciplinary artist working primarily with ceramic sculpture and sound. They use these mediums as tools for developing a language of personal symbolism and spirituality informed by a desire to intermingle and dissolve the boundaries between our physical, spiritual, and emotional realities. Most recently performing and showing work under the moniker Neolith, Alim utilizes noise, performance, and sculptural installation to bring forth a disruptive wisdom embedded in the metaphors of stone and the earth’s many magical and transformative geologic processes.
Neolith is sonic material unearthed, extricated, conjured from a vast internal geography. Noise artifacts emerge and give record to a layered and dense ground lithified through the slow pressures of time and witness.
