Ying Yang: Blurring the Lines Between Artist and Design

May 15, 2015 - Jun 14, 2015

Yin Yang showcases a compelling body of work by 35 female contemporary artists and designers, challenging the often arbitrary distinction between 鈥渁rt鈥 and 鈥渄esign.鈥


Featuring the work of painters, sculptors, illustrators, writers, furniture designers, fashion designers, printmakers, and more 鈥 each maker was invited to produce a work that challenges their usual mode of creation to reach an aesthetic end. Each participant, therefore, will be exhibiting work that is very different from what is normally shown as a representation of that person.


With this shift, the artist is re-contextualizing their own methodology 鈥 gaining a new, macrocosmic approach to 鈥榤aking鈥 as a whole. This exhibition prompts an undercurrent of dialogue about our expectations of artists and creators of our generation, attempting to expand this often too stark and linear division between 鈥渁rt鈥 and 鈥渄esign鈥 in our modern landscape.


Yin Yang functions as an open platform 鈥 showcasing a freeform survey of unusual works by popular creative tastemakers, outside of the structured confines of the typical gallery, boutique, or 鈥渁rt-viewing鈥 setting. We hope you will join us for what we believe is a mind-bending and stimulatingly electric exhibition. 


Featuring Artists: Tisch Abelow, Trudy Benson, Andrea Bergart, Ellen Berkenblit, Samantha Bittman, Rose Blake, Kate Casey, Sonya Cohen, Moira Connelly, Cheryl Donegan, Jashin Friedrich, Hildie Gifstad, Tamara Gonzales, Jessica Hans, Nina Hartmann, Brittni Ann Harvey, Josephine Heilpern, Madeline Hollander, Emma Kolemann, Antonia Kuo, Alice Lancaster, Amelie Mancini, Carol Nhan, Beth Noe, Maya Odim, Elise Peterson, Shana Sadeghi-Ray, Dakotah Savage, Coleen Self, Emily Ludwig Shaffer, Lily Stockman, Katie Stout, Evren Tekinoktay, Joy Walker and Bari Ziperstein,.
