SILO CITY EVENTS SERIES

Inside the Perot Grain Elevator, Justina Dziama has hung a series of latex shrouds cast from the building’s facade to speak about industrial disintegration. On the exterior of the malt House, Avye Alexandres’ installation uses mirrors angled at various degrees and hung at a variety of heights in an effort to visually splice sky within the building’s brick facade. Camillaci and Svisco capture solar rays as colorful cords while Landon Moreis creates floating fiber rings that draw viewers’ attention up into the five-story structure. Inside the Malt House, Landon Moreis and the artistic duo of Michael Camillaci and Sara Svisco explore spatial intervention within the context of the 1907 building originally used for malting barley. The text oscillates between visible and invisible as it reflects its surroundings, mimicking the colors and features composing the architecture of Silo City. Brandon Geissmann dispersed various textual interventions throughout the site and inside both historic buildings. Guests will be met by the playful rhizomedas xxx’s Solstice Field a series of kinetic, moving pennants whose translucence will cast new patterns and colors on the ground. Projects are spread throughout the Silo City complex. The six artworks from the exhibition will remain on the Silo City site, enduring or deteriorating as part of the living arts and architectural experience embedded in this reclaimed industrial site. The installations are both inside and outside of the two main structures and artists have taken into special consideration the changing sunlight that moves over and across the site on the longest days of the year.

The installations are designed to interact with the two buildings at the north-eastern tip of the site the Perot Grain Elevator and Malt House.
