Demetrius Oliver, 2013 |
Demetrius Oliver
Terrestrial
The New York artist will premier a video installation influenced by unmanned vehicles that explore the surface of distant worlds. The video Terrestrial takes
place in a residential apartment. Scattered on the floor are quotidian
materials extracted
from the artist's lexicon that surveys the lower regions of space.
Designed with special entrance doors to the Screening Room, two
sculptural works accompany the single channel video.
Oliver
uses prosaic objects like tea kettles, light bulbs and umbrellas to
evoke poetic associations between physical materials and abstract
ideas. Both introspective and transformative, Oliver's practice
investigates the cosmos from the vantage point of the artist's studio
and the space of the gallery.
Terrestrial remain on view through Saturday,
July 27, 2013.
