Roslyn M. Dupré: The daily devotional

December 5 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm

Free

The daily devotional is the latest installment of Roslyn M. Dupré’s ongoing experimentations with fiber technique, language, and ritual. An assemblage of photographs and intimate sewn works, the exhibition explores the artist’s reactions to text, to forms of language, and to traditional fiber work. The project initially began as a reaction to the unusual circumstances of the 2020 Covid-19 lockdown and continues as a growing record and investigation of repetition and permutation. Using a $1.25 mass-market paperback version of Michael Crichton’s Andromeda Strain, Dupré performed daily repetitive acts cutting, quilting, pleating, reassembling and photographing pages into small works. This site-specific installation in the Lawndale stairway invites a close examination of ritual, creating an experience of repetitive action similar to the process of their making.
