Lucy Orta:
Nexus Architecture + Connector I

Schmidt Center Gallery
November 8, 2002 - January 18, 2003

Artist: Lucy Orta's sculpture combines fashion design, architecture and a social agenda. The artist orchestrates events to create literal and metaphoric human connections. Cross disciplinary workshops that involve marginalized, at-risk or underserved community populations are integral to these interventions/events. Orta currently teaches at the London Institute.
