An Uneven Floor by Miami artist Leyden Rodriguez-Casanova. It's your last weekend to experience Rodriguez-Casanova's rolling pink hills of fuzz, a site-specific installation that evokes the stability of domesticity while throwing visitors off with unexpected peaks and valleys on the floor. Why the pink carpet? As the artist explains: "I grew up in a pink house (horrific for a house). It is also a color the represents a certain class status when used for certain things like a house or a car... a bit gaudy in nature. My work is not all that preoccupied with kitsch, but considering Cuban working class history, it tends to come up every now and again."
Mondays-Sundays. Starts: Feb. 13. Continues through Feb. 20, 2010
