Contained, Boston Center for the Arts
Saturday, February 26, 2011 at 6:50AM Contained presents international artists’ reactions to industrially produced objects and environments that enclose or bind. The images and themes in this show range from the life cycle of buildings, the unimaginable size of shipping containers and the vulnerability of nature to the more common trash barrels, plants and decorative gates that we interact with everyday.
Curated by John Pyper.

This show will contain the full version of my Suburban Foraging in Public Spaces project. The entire project has never been displayed in one space before. It documents the beginnings of the project in 2006-2007 to 2010. I have never seen the whole thing displayed so I am very excited to see the results!
