Greenville, SC - January 23, 2026 - Tiger Strikes Asteroid Greenville (TSA GVL) is thrilled to announce the winner of our  2026 Open Call Exhibition: EVER / ELSE, a new solo show by Miami-based Canadian artist, Amy Schissel. On view from January 23 - February 28, 2026

Our 2026 Open Call is themed around boundaries, interpreted broadly across mediums, concepts, and processes. In EVER / ELSE, Schissel explores boundaries within and across multiplicities through large-scale drawings and installations that trace and expand the overlapping infrastructures that organize contemporary life. Incorporating information including GPS coordinates, data networks, and migration routes, Schissel dismantles boundaries—treating them less as edges and more as sites in flux.

Working with layered graphite, ink, and paint, Schissel constructs environments that feel both precisely engineered and on the verge of collapse. Lines form and break mid-trajectory. Grids warp and multiply. Pathways intersect without resolution. The exhibition operates in the visual language of digital mapping systems and network diagrams, where tension arises between order and chaos, virtual and physical, presence and absence.

At an immersive scale, Schissel transforms our gallery, positioning visitors inside the system, navigating spaces that shift between the immediate bodily and the disorienting abstract. Her work asks what it means to orient ourselves when the systems we rely on are themselves unstable—when "here" is always entangled with multiple elsewheres.
