Evolutionary Drift: Works by Sue Johnson and Pam Longobardi
98th Annual Exhibition of Contemporary Art
Evolutionary Drift explores issues of human overindulgence, excess, and consumption and subsequent transformative effects on the environment. Pam Longobardi travels to distant shores collecting what is essentially run-off from our consumer society: marine debris and plastics in the ocean. She then assembles these plastic doodads into mosaic-type installations. While Sue Johnson’s work refers to some of the same issues, her sculpture is imbued with surrealist humor. Simultaneously whimsical and ominous, Johnson’s etchings seek to make visible the those aspects of the world that, for her, alternately seduce and elicit alarm. |
