LINN MEYERS: OUR VIEW FROM HERE

May 12, 2016–May 14, 2017 - The site-specific wall drawing, which stretches the entire circumference of the inner-circle galleries on the museum’s second level, more than 400 linear feet.  The drawing is temporary and will be painted over at the end of the exhibition’s yearlong run.

Meyers creates her works by hand-drawing thousands of closely spaced, rippling lines, each nested beside the one that came before it. Drawing alone for long hours each day with a type of marker often used by graffiti writers, she welcomes the imperfections that are a natural part of working without templates or taped lines. The resulting patterns flow and pulse with energy.
