Object Relations

Songyi Kim, Dunno What It Is, 2015


Object Relations
Monday, June 6, 2016, 6-9pm

Join A.I.R. Fellowship Artist Andrea Burgay in a workshop and community building project "Object Relations" at Ground Floor Gallery!
 
"Object Relations" will utilize items provided by participants to create new visual artworks, primarily small-scale constructed sculptures. Participants will exchange objects/materials to create new work, inspired by and connecting them to their fellow community members.
Do we find objects inspiring because of their visual qualities or because of our personal associations with them? How can we interact with and relate to an object that someone else finds meaningful? Will the new works made with these objects reflect the qualities the original owner found appealing, or will other qualities within the object be discovered?
Participants
Bring an object that you find enticing, exciting, inspiring or interesting that you are willing to part with.
Describe the qualities of the object that create its appeal.
Choose an object supplied by someone else in the group.
Create something new using the new object you’ve chosen and other supplied materials.

*The created artworks will be displayed at Ground Floor Gallery on June 7th from 6-8pm.
