Laurie Frick: Walking, Eating, Sleeping
September 10, 2013 through January 3, 2014
Artist Talk: October 13, 2013 | 11:30am – 12:30pm

The artwork of Laurie Frick explores the intersection of technology and creativity as the artist herself adopts a daily regimen of self-tracking that measures her activities and body. In doing so, she shapes a vocabulary of pattern used to construct her intricately hand-built works and installations. Her quantifiable patterns, like her heart rate, the duration of her sleep or body weight are some of the metrics that inspire her colourful and complex works.
