The exhibition will feature mesmerizing video installation and densely-layered prints by Prives, and sculptural installations by Lee that combine photographic images, resin, and light. Though the artists work in very different media, their work shares a similar palette (mostly black and white, with hints of color), and an attention to detail and experience of time and space that rewards close and extended attention.
Simona Prives is a Brooklyn-based visual artist whose work includes painting, drawing, and time-based media. Having received her MFA from Pratt Institute, Prives creates animated collages that incorporate a variety of themes and materials. Her work explores the dialectic of growth and decay and examines our complex relationship between the organic and the man-made.
