Dissolve

Curated by UCI Professor Bridget Cooks, PhD

Opening Reception: Sat., Oct. 1 at 2:00 p.m.

University Art Gallery

Dissolve explores how certain artists perceive what it means to change from one form to another. Through painting, photography, sculpture, installation, and video, selected artworks demonstrate how gradual and immediate changes impact viewers’ perceptions of self, one another, and the shared environment. Adopting an inclusive view of the process of dissolving, the featured artists visualize the physical dissolution of light, water, distance, and geographic borders. They also address the dissolution of personal relationships, identity, and social and political networks.
