CUTS MAKE YOU.

 

Morris Graves Museum of Art

May 28 - July 3, 2016

 

Brooke Holve contemplates the poetics of seeing in Cuts Make You., an exhibition of mixed media constructions, installations, and an artist book.  Her work reflects an exploration of ‘cutting’ as process and form as she cuts to see and cuts to make. She is interested in how to apply process to a material and arrive to a form that refers back to its making. The work is informed by the changing role of the book as the world moves to primarily digital delivery systems. Discarded book remnants are the dominant material of this work.
