Henry Bermudez

"Influenced by Latin American and African mythology and folk art, in this exhibit Henry Bermudez creates wall-sized cut paper collages combined with giant cut-out photos featuring Kelicia Pitts, a fine art model and local curator. The installation also represents the latest art collaboration of Ms. Pitts’ ongoing The Kandy Project, in which she acts as the primary model/subject for a visual artist’s body of work."

OPHELIA
Nadja Verena Marcin

Franklin Furnace Grant

From the press release
Nadja Verena Marcin’s OPHELIA will be an architectural performance both presented live and as video sculpture evoking questions of anthropocentric attitudes and actions that are resulting in human destruction of the biosphere. The artist will be reenacting Ophelia’s final moments inside a saltwater water tank—wearing an Ophelia-like dress, and a transparent breathing mask, the artist will appear dreamlike but deprived, attempting to quote text from Daniil Kharms’ The Werld about human subjective perception. The final video-sculpture, an aquarium-like transparent sarcophagus, with video screens on its longer sides, will display footage of the live performance. The iconic artwork and text that have inspired and will inform this performance includes Ophelia (Millais, 1852) and Three Ball Total Equilibrium Tank (Koons, 1985) and text from The Werld (Kharms, 1939).The image of Ophelia inside an advanced, constructed reality, kept alive through a mask and encircled by technology, will be a metaphor for the Anthropocene: “The human imprint on the planet has now become so large that it rivals some of the great forces of nature.”

I know I've been very lack about publishing lately. I've been busy, what can I say.

The project you see here is an idea for the board game as well as an exhibition. On the smallest scale I will let people download the game board for free. It can be a fun home or school project with the board as a starting space. New 3D game pieces (mine are the Milagros) and game cards can be created using their own ideas.

In one of the images you see a table set up ready to play on. This can be used for small group exhibitions. More tables can be used for larger shows.

The large solo exhibition will include a fenced-in detention center, silver emergency blankets, human scale 3D Milagros that will be moved by audience members, and video screens with dice rolls, card text, sound effects, etc.
