UnEarth

Liz Ensz at Joel Hayden Salter Gallery

University of Wisconsin, Baron County

March 1st - April 8th, 2016

Situated in the contemporary American sublime, the exhibition UnEarth presents a series of sculptural works, photography, and textile installations that examines and re-positions our relationships to Objects and Hyper-Objects through mediations of low and high technology, material translation, and the inadequacies of both documents and memory.
