‘Tinkering Towards Utopia’

This exhibition by American artist Terry Berlier continues her ongoing threads in kinetic and sound sculpture with humor and political critique. Berlier’s installation uses a common American saying “waiting for the other shoe to drop” (referring to a sense of impending doom) as her departure point.

Gestures between silence, waiting, and collapse suggest the tension between stasis and engagement. The illusion of progress which lulls us to complacency is interrupted by dissonance and clearer call to action.

Berlier teaches sculpture at Stanford University in Palo Alto Ca since 2007 where she is an Associate Professor of Art.
