Christopher Meerdo and Cecilia Salama presented joint exhibition Displaced Desire at Chicago’s LVL3, which opened September 9 and is running to October 22.
Chicago-based Meerdo, who’s work explores “the manifestation of meaning through digital translation,” and New York-based Salama who “renders materials to sift through virtual interests and relationships,” have brought their practices together to explore isolation and desire.
Working across mediums, the pieces appropriate and re-imagine materials, from faux fur, uncured resin, bungee cords, a dog harness, meat hooks and velvet ribbons to hydro-print on painted extruded polystyrene, hydrocal, acrylic, an LED screen, chains and USB drives.**
