At Hauser & Wirth West Hollywood, Charles Gaines debuts a new installment of Numbers and Trees, his most intricate yet. Using baobab trees photographed in Tanzania, Gaines applies numerical systems to transform images into layered Plexiglas triptychs and watercolor diptychs. His methodical approach challenges perception and meaning, while referencing history, identity, and cultural context. Viewers are invited to find significance within the structured yet ambiguous visual logic.
