EVENT DETAILS
Information Space is pleased to present their first open call exhibition, The Dirt in Our Garden featuring 28 artists nationwide that do not hold fine art degrees. Please join us for an opening reception on September 14th from 5pm to 9pm. Amplifying the voices of artists that are self taught and untraditionally trained gives us a fuller picture of the range of work being made in our community of artists. Much like overturning or rotating a garden, we look to elevate new perspectives of typically overlooked artists.
The Dirt in Our Garden takes shape as a sprawling installation of works ranging from collage, drawing, sculpture, photography, painting, and ceramics, suspended between the physical and the astral plane. Hosting a number of local artists as well as creators from New York to Miami from Georgia to Portland. Bodies, human and beyond, are disfigured and out of place, not horrific but rather apparitions at the edge of vision. The landscapes and environment portrayed reach through historical propaganda to an intersectional struggle of the trouble with having a body.
