Brynn Hurlstone: Resonance

Brynn Hurlstone: Resonance is an interactive exhibition that addresses the pervasive, yet often unseen, issue of domestic violence. A transdisciplinary artist, Hurlstone uses reactive materials—steel, glass, water, salt, silk, cotton, paper, and wood—to create an environment that “is alive, in continual transformation, and activated by human presence.” Visitors are invited to accept or refuse multiple levels of engagement: as they step on steel plates, water spills from spotlighted glass vessels, forming rust drawings that slowly weaken the steel beneath; the gentle breeze created by walking through the space ruffles delicate silk panels, slowly fraying their edges over time; books of poetry printed with rust and bound with silk sutures can be picked up, examined, and contemplated to further uncover the stories that fill the exhibition.
