Elisabeth Higgins O’Connor at SFAC Galleries Window Installation Site
Elisabeth Higgins O’Connor (MFA 2005) will unveil her new installation, “Causatum,” and take part in an intimate sidewalk artist talk on Friday, June 26 from 6-7 pm.
The public is invited to gather on the sidewalk for a discussion with O’Connor and SFAC Galleries Associate Curator Jackie Im. They’ll discuss how the artist transformed the empty storefront gallery into a den for her massive sculptural creatures. O’Connor’s use of traditional bedding materials make her sculptures accessible, even a little cuddly, despite their monstrous size. With their mixture of patterns and various degrees of disarray, they convey a degree of pathos, like much-loved stuffed animals rendered threadbare over time, only magnified to an absurd degree.
