Situations is pleased to announce Loop hole, a solo exhibition by Alejandra Seeber, opening on Thursday, October 23rd and on view through November 22nd, 2025. The exhibition brings together a selection of recent works that expand the possibilities of painting through layered translation, spatial intervention, and participatory experience.

The exhibition includes five paintings from Seeber’s Knit series, in which woven patterns and painterly gestures intersect to create richly textured surfaces that oscillate between image and object. Seeber approaches painting as a medium capable of absorbing its surroundings—one that is both pictorial and atmospheric. Through a dynamic interplay of assimilation and resistance, her practice challenges conventional ideas of what a painting can be.

Her works draw on both traditional materials and unconventional tools, forming an irreverent relationship to the medium. Knits emerge as central motifs, as Seeber engages with architecture and design as images of the world—images she stains, smears, and distorts. In doing so, she blurs the boundary between interior and exterior, invented and real, revealing hidden psychological states.

Seeber’s paintings often act as sets within larger environments, incorporating elements such as dance classes or performative installations. Alongside Seeber’s paintings, the exhibition also features a wool rug woven into the shape of a painter’s palette, which doubles as an interactive miniature golf installation. Here, the palette’s thumbhole doubles as the putting green hole, inviting viewers to participate physically and playfully in the space—an extension of Seeber’s ongoing interest in transforming painting into an architectural and experiential practice. Humor, play, contradiction, and layered meaning animate spaces both within and surrounding the paintings, making viewers active participants in the unfolding of the work.
