Solo(s) Project House will present an exhibition featuring the work of Fall artist in residence, Luz Peuscovich. The exhibition “Wigwam” will be on view from October 23, 2015 through December 15, 2015. A reception will be held for the artist, tonight,  from 7 – 11pm. Following the reception, the artist will exhibit at Manhattan Annex, R.JAMPOL PROJECT(s)

Peuscovich will develop a site specific installation that is constructed from a mixture of objects collected from nature, taking the form of the Native American dwelling structure, the wigwam. The artist commonly addresses human constructions in her work, symbolic structures representing the human conscience’ different needs.

Concepts center around the perception of our five senses and the experience of the human body when stepping in a work of art, transforming perception of physical space by a feeling the viewer has. The artist will spend several weeks collecting materials and constructing this installation with materials scavenged from rural areas of Tri-state. Additional interactions with audience will be achieved with lighting and sound.
