be like water is an exhibition that includes new work by Brooklyn-based mostly artist Aurora Robson, considered one of my favourite artists. I used to be capable of attend the opening of the set up throughout DesignPhiladelphia on the Skybox at 2424 Studios.
Curated by Eileen Tognini, the set up featured sculptures created by Aurora have been created from hundreds of recycled plastic bottles and over 108′ lengthy. The exhibition was in an industrial area, and the opening reception had a fluid environment that included low lighting, water-like music and salt water taffy.
Together with the present, native faculties have been requested to gather plastic bottle caps, which have been displayed on the entrance of the present. Plastic bottle caps typically don’t get recycled and find yourself in landfills and oceans inflicting environmental misery. After the exhibition ends, Robson will ship the bottle caps to Aveda in Babylon, NY, one of many solely locations within the nation that recycles these caps.
I really like how the area’s lamps appear to mix proper into the set up.
You possibly can nonetheless catch the exhibit — it runs by way of November seventh.
