New Colonies, October 13 - 17, 2008
LaVerne Krause Gallery, University of Oregon

West wall installation
2008, maps, drawings, prints, and found ephemera

New Colonies (not the original title) is a collection of work that reappropriates found objects, complies them, twists them, and reinvigorates them. The large maps and door sculpture contain ink drawings which are essentially clouds of nonsense. The show is about language--who are the speakers, the receivers, and who manipulates whom?
