Yasmin Spiro: Cornerstone
Artist Yasmin Spiro presents Cornerstone, the latest exploration of her ongoing research in vernacular architecture and building techniques and the ways they inform our innate connection to both built and natural landscapes. This immersive installation draws deeply from the geographic and architectural forms of her homeland, Jamaica, weaving together elements of cultural hybridity that resonate throughout Spiro鈥檚 practice. The exhibition features newly cast sculptures of varying scales, soundscapes, scent work, and large natural fiber weavings that create a multi-sensory experience. Through her deeply engaging installation, Spiro invites viewers to contemplate the intersections of body, architecture, land, and shared sacred space to consider the ability of our surroundings to generate feelings of isolation or togetherness.
