Kariann Fuqua

Where: Beverly Arts Center

Date: 2007-07-20 00:00:00

East Gallery Artist Reception: TBA Observation and the act of seeing are such an integral part of Kariann Fuqua’s work. It is this obsessiveness with looking and staring that has led to a fascination in the small details that are often overlooked. Currently, Fuqua has been exploring the forgotten urban landscape in Chicago. Her association with place has always been a transitory one. Having moved so often, migrating has had an impact on her sense of stability. Her relationship with her current location has been one of familiarity, in the process, and foreignness. By combining stains left by the process of time and wear, and references to architecture that is manmade and more permanent, she is creating a dichotomy of opposing gestures in an attempt to reclaim that familiarity. Through her exploration of materials with paint and color, she is establishing a dialogue about place and our consistently fluctuating positions in it. Fuqua just finished a public commission for McCormick Place that will be installed in May in their new addition which will open this summer. www.kariannfuqua.com
