EXHIBITION ANNOUNCEMENT
YOUR HIDING PLACE ISN'T WATERTIGHT..., opening SATURDAY MAY 9 2026

“...Life oozes in from all sides.” (Ingmar Bergman, Persona, 1966)

LVL3 presents your hiding place isn’t watertight…, a three person group show featuring Brendan O’Shaughnessy (Chicago, IL), Karmel Spanier (New York, NY), and Lily Rand (New York, NY). By challenging what we consider to be beautiful, perverse, sensuous, refuse, the works of O’Shaughnessy, Spanier, and Rand carry us beyond mere sensation or identification, and towards the shifting shorelines where you end and I begin—into the other-space of becoming.

The show is on view from May 9th to June 21st 2026. The opening reception is on Saturday, May 9th from 6-9 PM.

I’m so grateful to have spent the last 5 weeks as a resident at surrounded by so much talent, generosity, and beauty! Thank you to the amazing sculpture demigods, and Conrad Moore, for teaching me so much! I can’t wait to share what I’ve been working on!

I’m still thinking of a title and about what the work is trying to tell me, but I wanted to share what I’ve been working on!

Thank you for the immense joy you’ve given me! And thank you to all of the beautiful and talented and kind people there! Each and every one of you has taught me how to be a better person and artist! My heart is full of so much gratitude!
studio update
So grateful to have had the opportunity to visit the Hammond Bay Biological Station! Thank you to the incredible staff and research team for showing me around — it was SO inspiring! I saw invasive sea lampreys, native salmonid larvae, fish otoliths (calcium carbonate ear stones), a fish treadmill, and so much more!

Their decades-long effort to eradicate sea lampreys from the Great Lakes has proven to be one of the most effective invasive species removal programs in the world.

They were SO generous to provide me with 15 sea lampreys to continue my research into fish skin and sustainable biomaterials. More soon!
fish skin and quilts — more experiments to come!
