Sarah Sze. at The Fabric Workshop and Museum

Written by , Posted in Art, Arts & Entertainment

The Fabric Workshop and Museum located on 1214 Arch Street is currently hosting installations by artist Sarah Sze. Spectators can tour the three floors of the exhibition at no cost.

Sze molds commonplace objects into intricate and sophisticated presentations that leave viewers questioning both the triviality and significance of the familiar. In one room, viewers are surrounded by what looks like massive boulders, while in another room viewers walk, guided by tiny spotlights on the floor, through a stream of altered newspapers. Through her work, Sze invokes a sense of wonder and puzzlement that challenges current perceptions of time and space. Her work been featured in museums around the world.

The Fabric Workshop and Museum is open 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
