Tangled Truths

Presented by Contemporary Craft at Contemporary Craft

Tangled Truths, an exhibition by Pittsburgh artists Michelle Browne and Risë Nagin, will be on display at Contemporary Craft’s (CC) BNY Mellon Satellite Gallery from May 18 – August 18, 2018. In Tangled Truths, Browne and Nagin explore impermanence, perception, and the truth of everyday life through installations of fiber works.

Inspired by the verdant natural environment, Browne creates black-and-white monotype printed fiber installations that employ expressive mark making and recycled materials. Nagins’s work has encrypted passages from literature inscribed on newspaper accounting disruptions, turmoil, and human suffering. It is essential to the artist that neither the press clippings nor the writings on top can be easily deciphered; sharp contrast between black and white echoes the divisions within current discourse and the limits of language.

Located in the Lobby of the Steel Plaza T-Station in downtown Pittsburgh, Tangled Truths is free to the public and opens daily through midnight.
