CURRENT EXHIBITION

Synthetic Reality

March 15, 2008—August 2, 2008

Synthetic Reality is the most ambitious installation of Susan Beiner, faculty member of the ceramics department at ASU Herberger College School of Art. The room-sized project explores the artist’s concerns of genetically altered foods, cloned animals and the hybridization of the material world. Crossing the boundaries of conventional ceramics, Beiner’s focus is making what is organic synthetic. Synthetic Reality uses encrusted walls, floors and ceiling space to surround the viewer in an imagined world of manufactured, hybridized life.
 
This exhibition take place at the ASU Art Museum Ceramics Research Center (CRC).
