Aicon Art presents Tender is the Night, the New York debut solo of Youdhisthir Maharjan. The exhibition is a mid-career retrospective of the artist, presenting works that span from 2011 to 2019, with a particular focus on the last five years. Based between Boston and Kathmandu, Youdhisthir Maharjan, works with found materials and reclaimed text, engaging in laboriously repetitive and autopoietic processes – whether that be twisting newspaper into rope, methodically erasing all but certain words from a book, obscuring a text with intricate patterns, or cutting and re-aligning passages to form abstract shapes.
