Artist Name: Sheba Chhachhi
Dates: November 13 - December 23, 2008. Opening Reception with Artist: Thursday, November 13, 6-8 pm.

Exhibition Description:

Winged Pilgrims: A Chronicle from Asia is a multi-part installation including sculptures, lightboxes, and a recorded soundtrack which plays throughout the gallery space. The combined works present various iconographies (such as birds, landscapes, and robed figures) whose interplay conveys a history of migration. The migration in question is personal, theoretical, cultural, and philosophical. The series can be seen as a meditation on the expanse and intricacies of globalization.

Description:
