Artist Bill Jenkins describes the sensation of exploring Freshkills Park as “being inside an image.” In an effort to comprehend his own experiences of roaming around Freshkills Park, Jenkins devised a method of making video images on site, in the grasses and rainwater runoff, which reenacts the action of compression of physical matter at Freshkills Park into two dimensions. The “Image/Conduit” installation pairs the resultant videos, titled Scans, with sculptures from Jenkins’ Conduit series. Learn more with the curator at this gallery talk.
The gallery will be open 2:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m., with the talk beginning at 3:00 p.m.
