Charlotte Wall
Boundless I and II
September 9 – October 22, 2006
Opening, Friday, September 8, 6:30pm
Charlotte Wall’s work in this exhibition questions the nature of structural
limits. The artist presents two pieces which test and examine the nature
of boundaries. The viewer’s participation in the work is essential
for the artist, completing the work through their presence in the space.
In the gallery space, her piece Boundless I examines the concept of
limited and clearly defined spaces and is a response to the circumstances
encountered in confined spaces. Wall’s installation, Boundless
II,
in the Minoru window visually dissolves the exterior glass to invite the
outside into the gallery. By creating a new façade for the building
through the use of digital imaging, the artist comments on the necessity
of and opportunity for the world to enter into institutions allowing for
a combining of forces.
