Featuring self-taught artists from Vermont and the surrounding region, Outstanding explores the growing popularity and shifting implications of contemporary artists whose creative practice falls outside mainstream and traditional categories of art making.

HYUNSUK ERICKSON: THINGUMABOB SOCIETY

Through September 17, 2023

Second Floor Gallery, BCA Center

Hyunsuk Erickson explores ideas of materiality, resourcefulness, and identity in her whimsical installation Thingumabob Society. Comprised of multi-colored, organic forms that tower in size, spring from the wall, or gather in groups, Erickson’s oddly shaped and playful sculptures suggest sprouting seeds or family groupings as they also explore the hybrid nature of her Korean and American identity.
