Erika Vogt : Speech Mesh-Drawn OFF

14 Feb-6 Apr 2014

Overview

The first solo exhibition in the UK by American artist Erika Vogt (b. 1974. New Jersey, USA) is to be presented in The Calder, our new 600m2 contemporary art space. Vogt’s site-specific gallery installations are realised as dynamic image fields in which sculpture, film and video, photography, painting and drawing are interwoven. Drawing on her background in experimental filmmaking, Vogt’s installations unfold as cinematic environments in which the layered quality of her films is expanded into physical space. Speech Mesh - Drawn OFF will bring a group of plaster sculptures, suspended across The Calder's vast industrial space, into dialogue with a series of large-scale video projections.
