The Ellipses Project
THROUGH FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 2014
THROUGH FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 2014
by Cat Balco
About the Exhibition: The Ellipses Project
looks at the ways that art-making can help individuals connect with
hidden aspects of themselves, express difficult emotions, and affect
personal change. In particular, the Project explores the ways that art
can intervene during the end-of-life period.
Phase I : Perimeters & Portals: May 15 – July 8
Cat Balco's mural represents a fence or a transparent wall between the real world and the inner world. It is painted by artists and art students who agreed to participate in Balco's meditative painting practice.
The video piece, directed by artist Jeff Ostergren in collaboration with Balco and Ellipses Project Interns Sara Adams, Allie Corriveau, Catherine Johnson, Alyssa Nett and Kim Zebrowski is created out of excerpts from video diaries recorded during a 2012 summer internship in which students worked with Connecticut hospice patients as expressive artists. Ostergren works to re-contextualize interns' video reflections, so that they might serve as portals, opening poetic pathways for viewers seeking to understand more about what's beyond.
