This optically befuddling artwork, made from smoke and a glass bottle, is Jim Dingilian’s “Lowland.” It’s just of one the works made from grimy materials in an exhibition called Swept Away: Dust, Ashes, and Dirt in Contemporary Art and Design at The Museum of Arts and Design.
Swept Away: Dust, Ashes, and Dirt in Contemporary Art and Design will highlight works that deal with issues such as the ephemeral nature of art and life, the quality and content of memory, issues of loss and disintegration, and the detritus of human existence.
The exhibition is open through August 12, 2012
