About the Exhibition
Kirstin Mitchell: Miecznikowski
Miecznikowski is a colorful and texturally playful installation that touches on identity and the interruption of atmosphere. Entombment and weightlessness question tradition and the body. Miecznikowski fantasizes a Polish narrative from the Middle Ages while highlighting a goofball blue-collar immigration to the south.
