Jennifer Moon at Commonwealth and Council
Los Angeles

Jennifer Moon's installation is on view at Commonwealth and Council from November 7th - December 19th 2015.

Here is the gallery press release for the exhibition:

laub, me, and The Revolution (The Theory of Everything) is the last installment of Jennifer Moon’s Phoenix Rising Saga series: a fearless, three-part exploration of boundless love in its unadulterated form, free from cultural and personal motivations.

With diagrams, charts, and models, Moon’s collaboration with laub converts the exhibition space into a science fair fully equipped with a laboratory. Referencing the principles of physics, quantum mechanics, astrophysics, and microbiology, Moon and laub test their theory of expansive, relational love and present their experiment to merge with one another on parallel planes of existence. 

Assembled using K’NEX and Habitrail tubes, Moon and laub’s Jennifer laub Smasher is modeled after the Large Hadron Collider, the world’s most massive particle accelerator. Miniature figurines of Moon and laub stand before the entrance of this machine, waiting to be smashed together in search of the “faith particle,” hypothesized to exist in the all-encompassing dark matter that can free us from belief entities that inhabit us like parasites. Moon and laub propose that faith is an alternative to the popular concept of love bound in capitalism. In the adjacent glass laboratory, Moon and laub set up a transplant station for fecal swapping to merge their “gut fairies” in a symbiotic relationship. Recent discoveries in microbiology claim that the trillions of microbes or “gut fairies” communicate with our enteric nervous system (or second brain), influencing the way we perceive and interact with the world. 

In the accompanying video, 3CE: A Relational Love Odyssey, Moon and laub invite us to take part in their Cosmos-inspired journey as we learn to listen to our “gut fairies” instead of belief entities that reside in our minds: 

“…to surf the empathic waves of relational love; encounter entities that have taken up residence in our minds and…in our gut who collectively teach us how to feel…”

“…to search the unobservable and unreachable regions of dark matter…for proof of unadulterated forms of faith and love that never die.”

As the duo state at the end of the video: “Our journey is just beginning.”

Jennifer Moon is an artist, adventurer and writer living in Los Angeles. The foundation of Moon’s practice is her self-authored movement, The Revolution, a “way of being” laid out in two principles: Definition of Abundance and Definition of Expansive. Her work was included in Made in L.A. 2014 at the Hammer Museum, where she received the Mohn Public Recognition Award for her installation Phoenix Rising, Part 2: Eros vs. Agape.

More About Los Angeles

Overview and History Alllllrightie now, here's your soundtrack. Please click on "Hollywood" before you make another move. "LA Woman" is next up on your playlist.Quick math lesson:"If you've got it, flaunt it. If you don't got it, invent it and then flaunt it."Los Angeles is the second biggest city in the USA, it's in Southern California where you can go surfing or snowboarding whenever you want, and it means "City of Angels."LA was first named in 1781 by a Spanish governor who called it "El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de los Angeles de la Porciuncula", which means you need to go back to Spanish class.I mean, "The Village of our Lady the Queen of the Angels of Porziuncula." (The Porzincula part refers to a chapel in Italy dating back to the fourth century AD, not a native American tribe or anything local.)Mexico inherited Los Angeles when it won its independence from Spanish rule in 1821. Twenty-five years later LA became part of the United States territory in the treaty that ended the Mexican-American War. California became a state of the US soon after, and LA started getting excited for the arrival of Jim Morrison and the Doors.Railroads laid track to LA in 1876, which was very convenient for transporting the oil supply which was discovered in 1892 and Pow! The economy took off. With that, the population exploded, everybody ran out of water, you know, the usual story.Now that I think about it, LA has documented this story in a TV series called "The Beverly Hillbilles." Just watch the opening credits and you'll get the whole concept. This was one of the longest-running and most popular TV shows ever made in the States, which is why most Americans will think "swimming pools... movie stars..." when you say "Callyfurnia."And LA is where the TV and movies come from, specifically Hollywood, or Tinseltown, in the Hollywood Hills. This is where it all comes from, dancing pictures across the silver screen! If you've watched American TV, you've seen it. Here's the Bat Cave from "Batman".The first movie made in Hollywood dates to 1910, ("In Old California") and the first western TV station began broadcasting there in 1947.Oh, by the way, LA sits on the San Andreas geologic fault line. Fault lines are prone to earthquakes, and everybody expects LA to fall into the ocean someday.Getting There As soon as the wheels touch the ground, the cellphones flip open and you start overhearing people loudly telling everyone what their next appointment is. That's how you know you're in LA. The phone doesn't even have to be on.LAX is the main airport where it all goes down. Shuttle buses connect the airport to the city's Metro Green Line.TransportationLA is a driving city; you need a car so you have a place to sit while you are waiting in traffic. Worst traffic jams and road rage on earth.Contrary to popular belief, they actually do have a public transportation system with buses and a metro and everything in LA. Fares cost $1.25 for a single ride, $5.00 for a day pass, if you're interested. See, the thing is you need a window you can roll down to flip people the bird.Visit the LA Union Station just to see one of the last great railway stations, as it's known.People and Culture Rock and roll! Do you know what that means? That means you can do whatever the hell you want, really loud, and it should probably bounce up and down at some point... sort of like the Baroque Period, but instead of gold you can use neon and breast implants too. They both bounce a lot better than gold, anyway.Charles Mingus, The Doors, The Mothers of Invention, Guns N' Roses, Public Enemy, N.W.A, Snoop DoggThese people did not get there by asking anyone else for permission, see what I'm saying? Dr. Dre's classic album "The Chronic" will instruct you in everything else you need to know about L.A.Famous L.A. writers who did the same thing but on paper: Charles Bukowski, Raymond Chandler, John Fante.Q:How do you say, "F--- You" in LA?A: "Call me."Things to do & RecommendationsDisneyland is a massively popular vacation destination, especially for people with children. Walt Disney was the pioneer of animation who created Mickey Mouse, Bambi, Cinderalla and some interesting WWII training films.Architecture: Disney's Concert Hall designed by Frank Gehry. For more architecture, look up the architect Frank Lloyd Wright and visit some of the residences he built.For some of the artistic flavor of LA, you can do lunch at Casbah Cafe on Sunset Boulevard, and catch some live jazz at Spazio.Absorb the genius of Diego Rivera in the LA County Museum of Art, and then ask yourself how you will do something to keep up with him and Batman. Thank you L.A.! Text by Steve Smith.
