Shrill Relish and Other Stories by Amy Fleming is a curious collection of abandoned objects March 03 2015
From the orderly specimen assemblages to the miniature domestic spaces, Shrill Relish and Other Stories is a curious collection of abandoned objects that reanimates life into long since forgotten artifacts. Her miniature dioramas of domestic spaces use a limited color palette, lighting, and distinctive points of interest to bring the past to the present. These tiny scenes are haunted by a residue of past activities—a half-eaten sandwich, a phone receiver dangling from a wall, a burning cigarette, a crunched beer can, a live television event. The scale and physical distance of the dioramas require viewers to move in closely to look at the details, highlighting the fact that the past will always separate viewers from the view. In her assemblages, animal bones, metal shards, and broken household items are suspended by wires like a wind chime. While wind chimes were used in ancient times to ward off malevolent spirits, Fleming’s constructions suggest that these artifacts might ward off the deterioration of memory.Contemporary art jewelry exhibition to showcase the latest jewelry trends of 2015 February 03 2015
