An Uneven Floor: Miami Collectors Circle Conversation with the Artist

EVIDENCE Take a sneak peek at the stunning installation here.

About The Exhibit:
An Uneven Floor is a continuation of the artist’s interest in domestic objects and suburban architectural elements that explore social, cultural and autobiographical matters. Employing the language of Minimalism, the plush pink carpet suggests the safe environment of a domestic setting, while the unexpected elevation and descent of An Uneven Floor will create a sense of instability as visitors walk through the space. This contradiction sets the stage for an unsettling dialogue between the viewer's perception of a familiar object and its new context.
