MIE OLISE KJæRGAARD Penetrating Pores of Construction JULY 12 - AUGUST 9 2008 OPENING: SATURDAY JULY 12 - 6.30 - 8.30
Barbara Davis Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of London artist Mie Olise Kjærgaard - Penetrating Pores of Construction on July 12, 2008.
Penetrating Pores of Construction, her first solo exhibition in the United States, examines the “architecture of abandoned society” and discovers the misunderstood space between utopian ideas and their inevitable disassembly.
The parts left behind, however, are fused with nature to ultimately become whole as it should be and not as it once was. Her paintings discuss the intimate and poetic experience of her installations, while her installations actually create a space that envelops and involves the viewer.
Her spaces are reminiscent of rare monumental beauty but somehow harbor a feeling of familiarity and closeness. Kjærgaard’s work communicates a true feeling of longing by only suggesting the possibility of past inhabitation. |
