Preview: Saturday, September 30 // 6 PM
Make Me a Rainbow is part of the 2017 Terrain Biennale, a multi-site exhibition occurring in outdoor locations worldwide. Outdoors on the roof of 6018North, Chicago artist Joey Asal, using water and perfume, will create an olfactory rainbow that occurs during twilight, the golden hour. The scents in the atomizer mist sprinkler system reflect the diverse backgrounds of the neighborhood residents. Inside on the top floor of 6018North, Rodrigo Lara Zendejas will display Papantla, tus hijos vuelan, an installation based on “Los Voladores de Papantla,” an ancient Mesoamerican ritual during which participants dance on top of a 98 foot pole. Zendejas’ work will spin, creating a rainbow of colors as a parallel to Asal’s outdoor work. The exhibition will also include previously installed outdoor projects, including the 6018North planters and roof garden by Sarah Mallin and an alleyway garage mural by Moises Salazar.
