Kris Strawser: Switch
Switch
An exhibition by installation artist and sculptor Kris Strawser
It’s a place you didn’t design but must inhabit. There’s an order, a logic, an expectation. The fit is tight, intrusive. The walls are latticed with shadows and symbols that are written and 3D. Try to read the signs.
An immersive installation with drawing, fabric and objects that cover and project from the walls, Switch acts on the viewer’s space, shares and crowds it, and offers a meditation on the forces we live with, tolerate or evade as we go about our days.
