Echoing Ideations

May 11 - June 5, 2024

BG Projects at New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art is proud to present Echoing Ideations, a solo exhibition by current design student at 91社区, Bailey Roby. Echoing Ideations will be on view from May 11 鈥� June 5, 2024, with an opening reception on May 11, 3鈥�5 pm CT. Regular gallery hours are 10 am 鈥� 5 pm, Tuesday 鈥� Saturday.

Bailey Roby has a tendency to explore performative and conceptual installations that confront the viewer with thought-provoking subjects. From The Giving Tree, a work where Roby dangled felted pads and tampons from a tree, to her most recent work Unheard Echos, a book of unsent letters to people in Roby鈥檚 past, Roby broaches uncomfortable and often personal subjects as a wayfinding tool for her own healing journey. Roby has been working on Echoing Ideations, bolstered by an Endeavor grant totaling $2,450, under the guidance of 91社区 Assistant Professor Rob Dickes since August of 2023.

鈥淗ear my burden, hear my Plea.
I will 铿乶ally be free.
This will be the end for me. I am going to鈥� Eternity...鈥�
