Institute of Contemporary Art San Diego’s Balboa Park location presents its fall exhibitions. For her first exhibition in San Diego, Nathalie Miebach’s "Restless Waters" show will include a new sculpture based on California’s extreme weather. Miebach foregrounds the human relationship to data in her meticulously researched practice, and uses basket-weaving techniques to transform materials into sculpture, wall installations, and more to describe our reciprocal relationship with data. This exhibition runs Saturday, Sept. 21, 2024 - Sunday, Jan. 26, 2025.

This exhibition runs Saturday, Sept. 21, 2024 - Sunday, Jan. 26, 2025. Museum Hours: Thursday–Sunday Noon to 5 p.m. Monday–Wednesday Closed Directions ICA San Diego on Facebook / Instagram
