Cecille R. Hunt Gallery: Friday, 27 March 2009

KARIN HODGIN JONES: STANDING RESERVE
MARCH 27 – APRIL 17, 2009
Opening Reception: FRIDAY, MARCH 27, 2009, 6pm-8pm
Hours: Monday - Saturday 10am – 4pm or by appointment.

The Cecille R. Hunt Gallery is pleased to present recent work by this year's visiting artist Karin Hodgin Jones. Using a variety of media, such as motors, microcontrollers, wood, fabric, thread, solar panels and generators in her sculpture and installation work, Hodgin Jones focuses heavily on the feeble lines that connect the organic to the mechanical. Utilizing kinetics, she creates sprawling and odd installations, that both, tug, breathe and wave, all in an effort to mimic technology's interference in our natural landscape and its altering relationship to the human body. She states that the machine begins to stand in opposition to the body in competitive ways and casts a different light on its function.
