Modified Thoroughfare

Description
This exhibition titled Modified Thoroughfare was located in the Banvard Gallery on the main level of Knowlton Hall from February 12 through March 13 2007. The exhibit is a site-specific installation of new work by sculptor Soo Sunny Park. Park demonstrates in her large-scale installations a deftness in the juxtaposition of materials and an attention to light and mood. Her assemblages show a penchant for the recontextualization of a wide variety of materials, from the quotidian to the cutting edge. The KSA Banvard Gallery installation combines common materials like plastic cups and chain-link fence with 3M retroreflective glass beads and custom automated lighting to create a series of effects exploring themes of epigenetics, transition, and dislocation.
