@ Zhou B Art Center
1029 W 35th St, Chicago, IL 60609
Opening Friday, November 17th, from 8PM - 9PM
In a white space, Nanna Rosenfeldt-Olsen uses her body to recreate new systems of mark making. In her performative actions, she brings the imprints of the places she was before to her current location by merging two rectangles of black charcoal together on a white wall in this new space.
