Preview: Saturday, September 16, 2-5pm
Location: CAG Window Spaces
FIRE ALARM is an exhibition of work by seven 15-19 year old participants of Looking Through the Window: Visual Art Summer Intensive, a youth program created in collaboration with Arts Umbrella. The exhibition is presented at CAG’s Window Spaces from September 16-24.
For FIRE ALARM, each student developed a character from a set of found objects. Used as a guide, these suggested narratives and assemblages created from arrangements of found objects and a variety of window dressings. Through strategies of display and concealment, FIRE ALARM provides a window into the imagined domestic spaces and lives of seven individuals while reflecting on CAG as a site sitting at the foot of a condominium development
