RECEPTION & ARTIST TALK
SUNDAY | APRIL 23RD | 3:00 PM
Artists Ana M. Lopez and Natalie Macellaio invite visitors to consider our everyday visual language – air conditioning fixtures, fences, road signs, and construction materials – in a reimagined way, utilizing various materials including vitreous enamel, crystals, steel and copper. Lopez’s work sparks contemplation of wealth, display, power, and privilege through conflating references of decorative and industrial arts, while Macellaio’s work brings construction and deconstruction of the environment into focus by highlighting markers of change.
