Water: Illusions of Purity- Kate Dodd

Presenting a site-specific installation by New Jersey artist Kate Dodd. Using various bottle manipulations, organic delicacy and a startling quantity of plastic bottles the installation will fill the museum and raise the question, “Is the bottled water pure?” We tend to associate purity with nature, and so our belief in pure water is reinforced through nature images on bottle labels. In her work Dodd addresses the environmental damage from the associated energy, water use and plastic waste.
Artist Talk with Kate Dodd: July 19, 6:30 pm
Opening Reception: June 8, 2012, 5:00 - 8:00 pm
