About the event
Material Messengers: Ephemeral Environments invites the viewer to experience art as makers do – living within it. The site-specific installations in this show highlight the importance of Side Street Studio Arts in the cultural as well built environment of historic downtown Elgin.
Curated by @samuel_schwindt, artists Catie Burrill, Jordan Miller, Juliette Morris, Lucia Calderon Arrierta, Sarah Whyte, and Spencer Gale are messengers of material manipulation in the Chicago area — and together are an interdisciplinary group investigating space literally and figuratively.
Through fabric, fur, neon, found objects, and print the artists in this exhibit manifest talismanic values out of interventions in time and space.
Visit us and meet the artists at the opening reception Friday, August 2nd
6-9 pm
Exhibition runs through September 1
Free and open to the public.
