This event has ended.
In the Lab corridor, artist Jackie Ferrara debuts a newly commissioned work, entitled Lines, which will consist of six intricate wall drawings, each anchored by imagined architecture or architectural elements, along with lists of film titles rendered in Morse code. The Morse code acts as a foundation or band, interrupting the drawn architecture or consuming it in its entirety. The underlying theme of the individual works is reflected both in the architectural element or shape dominating the drawing as well as by the Morse code text, which consists of curated lists of films Ferrara began compiling in 1993. This commission reflects the ongoing evolution of Ferrara’s work, incorporating elements of the established language of her sculpture and public art works. Curated by Olga Valle Tetkowski, Exhibition Manager.
