MiraCosta Art Gallery Presents: 'Disrupted Pathology'

"Disrupted Pathology"

Joshua Almond

Aug. 27 – Oct. 10, 2025

Through his wooden sculptures, studio furniture, and drawings, Joshua Almond examines cellular processes where normal patterns break down, exploring the visual poetry found in these moments of biological disruption.

These profound transformations reveal tensions between order and chaos, growth and decay. Each piece investigates how dysfunction possesses its own beauty and logic, transforming microscopic phenomena into human-scaled encounters.

The inclusion of functional furniture alongside sculptural works creates a further dialogue between utility and organic inspiration. Rather than clinical illustration, the works in this exhibition provoke a re-examination of the multitude of cells collectively responsible for our own unique shape, and the moments of crisis when life’s programming encounters beautiful errors and necessary failures.
