Augsburg College Art Galleries invite you to the upcoming exhibition:
Antipodal Encounter
Eun-Kyung Suh and Cecilia Ramon
January 22 - February 26, 2010
Gage Family Art Gallery
"Antipodal
Encounters" features the 3D forms created by Korean artist Eun-Kyung
Suh and Argentinean artist Cecilia Ramon. Suh creates textile
sculptures out of sheer materials to examine the meaning embedded in
fabric and its relationship to human emotion and experience. She
sculpts the cloth by folding and sewing it together to create a sacred
vessel where both mundane objects and intimate memories can be kept.
Ramon investigates the physical and emotional presence of tension in
our life through her manipulation of wood forms. She carves, burns,
binds, and suspends wood, viewing it similarly in character to the
human body in both its frailty and strength.
