Location: Urban Institute of Contemporary Arts, Grand Rapids, MI

Client: Anna Kunz

Completed: 2013

Artist Anna Kunz’s work for the Chroma exhibit at UICA was directly inspired by the gallery space in which it was installed. Taking color cues from the space and the views surrounding it, the work interacts with and inserts itself into the gallery in a way that demands an active response from its viewers. The painted and dyed fabrics function like nets to capture and manipulate light and color.

As viewers walk up the ramps, their perceptions of space and journey are engulfed by color. The experiential work combines with existing spaces and surfaces to add complexity and invite viewers to structure the space by walking through it.

Space Haus worked with the artist to plan and install this exhibit.
