Deviating Forms
by Erin Smego
Erin Smego is a post-minimalist sculptor working with lumber, iridescent skins, and sometimes LED lights.She re-purposes industrial materials along with fashion elements to transform them into a critique on the ever-changing role of gender, simultaneously existing as an art object. Elements of playfulness sometimes appear, and color (or lack of) is used to reflect emotion.
Subjects explored include: survival, awkwardness, peculiarity, falling (apart), isolation, emptiness, hyper-optimism, and vulnerability.
