214 Projects, an art space founded by the Dallas Art Fair will present How it looks to be you in Egyptian Cotton, curated by Adrianna Cole. Opening Saturday, July 20, this group exhibition will explore concepts of the personae and identity through distorted renderings of the human figure. Feature painting, sculpture, and mixed media works, various artists, including Miriam Cahn, Oshay Green and Calvin Marcus are presented in the galleries among domestic objects that activate the space as an installation. Rounding out the exhibition will be a video installation by Shelby David Meier.
Cole returned to Dallas from Chicago in 2017 and works at Runyon Arts. Her latest curatorial project is called Domicishow, a series of exhibitions that take place in domestic spaces and examine various modes of experiencing artwork on an intellectual, emotional, and intuitive level. Cole?s research includes architecture, proxemics, and identity.
Oshay Green lives and works in Dallas using found objects, cement, audio, and a wide variety of materials, Green explores intuitive ideas to cultivate the subconscious and understand the realities and phenomena occurring between the physical and metaphysical.
Dallas resident, Shelby David Meier?s practice is a deadpan array of objects, installations, video and performance centered on a philosophy of the mundane and inherent absurdities of life.
The opening reception is from 6?9 p.m., 214projects.com
