Community Descriptions
Park McArthur’s Polyeruthane Form: “A large block of enveloping foam…I loved its invitation to touch and exist with.”
— Madison F.
Jerron Herman’s LAX: “I don’t often see a dance video in a museum setting and it was exciting to see it’s interaction with the rest of the works. In the video, Herman demonstrates grace, balance, and fragility.”
— Robert S.
Finnegan Shannon’s “Do you want us here or not (Fralin)”: “Do you want us here or not (Fralin) is a bench that doubles as both furniture and artwork. Made of smooth, lacquered plywood , it provides a place to sit and rest while reflecting on who is welcome eon the museum. The words across the surface - "Heavy sigh" followed by a "Sit if you agree" - transform an ordinary bench into a statement about access, comfort and belong. By offering rest while also confronting the visitor, the work invites reflection on how museums include or exclude different bodies and experiences.”
