Joseph Gerard Sabatino “Foul Play”
AC Institute
This event has ended.
The AC Institute showcases the exhibition FOUL PLAY by artist Joseph Gerard Sabatino. FOUL PLAY combines crude industrial materials with elements of nature. This new body of work is the third overlapping themed installation created within the last two and a half years. In the exhibition, the artist continues to explore the life cycle of the silkworm, it’s attraction to the mulberry tree, and how its phase of life and death forms a natural continuum. Even with the caterpillar’s brief lifespan, the larva feeds and quickly grows. It ultimately spins silk threads around its protective shell, later becoming unwound by an individual, then eventually woven into a luscious silk fabric.
