Somewhere Between Chaos and Serenity, is a continuation of my body of work titled, Gut Feeling. This body of work focuses on the viewer’s experience as the focal point of the exhibition. I designed the whole gallery as an art object using both positive and negative space. The sculptures act as one unified system that guides the viewer through the exhibition in a circular arrangement. The viewer follows the forms as they puncture through the walls of the gallery, while considering their own body’s relationship to the forms being seen.

Sequoyah Hall acts as a domestic space or stand in for a home, a place of safety and comfort. Living alone during the pandemic, my home has become a place of anxiety. In the exhibit I wanted to capture a home’s role of feeling safe and secure while also depicting the invasive feeling of dread and constriction that now occupies my home.
