An article about Inverted Dome by Madeleine Schulz was recently published by Flaunt and is available to view here.

In conjunction with my ongoing exhibition Inverted Dome at the MAK Center for Art and Architecture, Mackey Garage Top, I’m releasing a series of fully digital studies that further advance ideas touched on within the exhibition. The fourth and final work in this series is Chimera.

Digital Study #4 (Chimera), 2022

A chimera is an organism composed of multiple tissues with different genetic composition. In Greek mythology, a chimera is a hybrid being — part lion, goat, and snake. As an animation, Digital Study #4 (Chimera) morphs between three states in an infinite loop, reflecting an otherwise unseen backdrop all the while.

The full series of digital works, catalog essays, documentation of the installation, and more will be included in the forthcoming Kristin Posehn: Inverted Dome publication — save the date for the publication release on April 29, 2022 at the MAK Center for Art and Architecture Schindler House.

Digital Study #3 (Training Phantom), 2022

Excerpt from a forthcoming interview with exhibition curator Aurora Tang:

TANG: How do you see these digital studies in relation to the physical exhibition?

POSEHN: It’s been a back-and-forth evolution. As I was fabricating the sculpture, installing, and then documenting it, I was also 3D modelling the gallery. It was fascinating to be in the gallery and observe how light falls in the space at different times of day, and then go to my studio and juxtapose that with how light was being rendered in the 3D environment I was building. The conversations we’ve had in the gallery and responses from visitors have brought up new ideas that are filtering into the studies. It’s been a way for the work to continue to unfold, respond, and reflect in real time.
