Elizabeth Browning Jackson: RE/CONSTRUCT

Superhouse is pleased to announce RE/CONSTRUCT, a solo exhibition by trailblazing American artist and designer Elizabeth Browning Jackson. On view from November 7 through December 20, 2025, the exhibition marks Jackson’s first solo presentation in over three decades. A boundary-breaking talent, she was part of New York’s explosive downtown art furniture scene in the 1980s and exhibited at Art et Industrie, the gallery seminal to that movement.

Through her work, Jackson helped redefine art and design, most notably by establishing a precedent for shaped rugs. With RE/CONSTRUCT, she continues to demonstrate her unique capacity to expand the possibilities of fiber as a sculptural medium. The exhibition brings together four of Jackson’s original rug designs from the 1980s with four contemporary reinterpretations, which she calls “reconstructions. ”

Displayed alongside these rugs are examples of her origami-inspired bent aluminum furniture, also from the 1980s. Cut and folded from flat plates, these pieces mirror the dimensional vitality of her rugs and further highlight her daring graphic sensibility and radical explorations of abstraction across materials. Presented together, the rugs and furniture establish a total environment, continuing Jackson’s vision of immersive scenography where surface, form, and space converge into a singular expression.
