6601 W College Dr, Palos Heights, IL 60463
Opening Thursday, March 10th, from 6PM - 8PM
On view through Thursday, March 31st
Reason Where It Comes From presents a series of works that explicate the often antagonistic relationship between the body, and designed objects and spaces. Ranging in focus from individual interaction to mass manipulation, each piece untangles the formal and psychological methods by which architecture and design attempt to restrain the body.
The installation includes four wall-sized, mono-printed finger paintings, a group of church pews strung together into a mobius strip, and a parisian cafe chair doubled on itself. The convergence of these gestures provides a confirmation of bodily desire in opposition to the constraints of structured environments.
