Forming, Here, Again
DART × Third Space Art Collective
Opening Reception: Friday October 10, 2025, 5-8pm
Forming, Here, Again is a solo exhibition by artist Luka Vergoz, jointly presented by DART and Third Space Art Collective.
Third Space Art Collective is a non-profit community art space that operates as an exhibition venue, shared studios, workshops, and an art pantry providing free materials. Its layered and fluid functions resonate with Vergoz’s process of transforming discarded matter into new forms.
Working with scraps that are byproducts of construction or casualties of time, Luka Vergoz reshapes and rearranges what has been overlooked into patterns, forms, and structures. His practice explores thresholds of becoming and unmaking: when a line becomes a shape, a shape becomes form, and texture becomes structure.
In Forming, Here, Again, Vergoz returns to Davis, where he completed his MFA before relocating to Oakland. This return reflects the exhibition’s central question: if places once left behind and past experiences are themselves discarded materials, what new forms can emerge when we gather and reshape them?
