Double Exposure Leah Knecht
Assemblage, Resin, Transparencies
40" x 40" x 3" NFS
This piece is an examination of growing up with very differing cultural expectations and customs, which can create confusion and a sense of not belonging to any group. Artifacts of Western and Eastern cultures are suspended in overlapping vintage window frames, and horizontal lines represent the pull of each culture. Transparencies cast projections onto the wall, adding to the nebulous feel, along with shadows, so there are shifting perceptions and interaction as the viewer moves through space.
