Triangle Alum Karlis Rekevics site specific sculpture at the Brooklyn Bridge Park (Sculpture)
Untitled, 2009, Plaster, Human scale, approx. 15 x 16 x 45 feet, Installed for Sculpture Key West 2009, Key West, Florida
Karlis Rekevics has created a temporary large-scale sculpture based on the unique urban environment of DUMBO. Rekevics is inspired by the overlooked infrastructure of the man-made landscape and translates this experience through memory and the intensely physical construction process of making molds and casting plaster. The artist seeks to make something significant about the insignificant places that we see but don’t see everyday.

French-born, NYC-based artist Eve Bailey likes to snuggle closely with the forms she creates. She designs and builds ergonomic sculptures that she uses to perform humorous body workouts and poetic balancing acts.
Triangle Alum Pia Linz, 81 Front Street
(Box Engraving: EIDIA House Studio 2011)
In the EIDIA House Studio, Pia Linz created the whole room drawing by sitting on a table in the center of a room, within the polyhedron structure and drawing everything in her view onto the plexi-glass sides of the polyhedron. Later, in her studio, she renders the drawing permanent by engraving the lines into the plexiglass.
Triangle alum Ari Tabei, 56 Water Street
‘Runaway Cape-Cart’ is an investigation in both individual and communal concepts of ‘nest/home/community’ as a temporary shelter, through a task of ‘nesting’ a mobile habitat and performing it.
Saturday 9/24: 1PM, 2:30PM, 4PM, 5:30PM

Triangle Arts Association is pleased to present the work of current resident artists, Stephanie Beck, Jonggeon Lee and Caitlin Masley.
Works include sculpture and drawing that present three perspectives surrounding the notions of architecture. The artists examine the domestic, public and private spaces that we inhabit– either physically or metaphysically– and our perception of the boundaries they represent and impose.
Beck’s intricate low-relief paper sculptures toe the line between the real and the imaginary by evolving organically from stored impressions of spacial memories and idealized landscapes that simultaneously entertain the forces of chaos and order.
Lee’s, Bridge of Paradise, an elegant engraving of a Persian Garden Carpet on reclaimed hardwood flooring from a demolished New England colonial-style home, denies the viewer a concrete understanding of time or place. The fissure created by the metaphoric collision of two very different cultures represented by their iconic architectural symbols challenges the viewer to envision a new context in which such an object could possibly exist.
Masley’s site specific sculptural wall drawing is an imposing four dimensional model of the fractured psychogeography in which we all exist concurrently presenting the geopolitical and emotional elements that inform our shared global landscape as presented through mass media.
Combined, these diverse works create a prismatic conversation which measures the tangible by way of the speculative and in turn incites the viewer to contemplate the “here and now” amidst the “nowhere”.
This exhibit will be open until August 25th and we will be holding gallery hours, Tuesday-Saturday, 12-6pm and by appointment.
