I am participating in this show at Claremont Graduate University.  It is a collaborative installation created by the students of CGU Art, taking the Installation Seminar.

This is a collection of moveable objects, initially gathered in between the two gallery spaces so that they can then be freely moved from one space to another. These works result from a single directive and a short timeline: within two weeks construct a piece that can travel between the galleries. The two galleries, one titled Decent, and the other Indecent, invite the viewer to interact in a visual organization of the works. Whether one person sees a piece as decent and moves it into the gallery, while another disagrees and puts it in indecent, or if the work appears too nebulous to the viewer and they want to leave it in the lobby space, this exhibit wants to explore how we create and dismantle consensus. The show is itself a question of taste: is it decent to touch works, to move them, and engage with them, or is there value in overcoming the indecency of interacting physically with art? How do we as a culture categorize and understand art, and how do we define what is decent and indecent in the objects that are present? Is art itself decent? How definite are our own views?  And what happens when we put a bunch of stuff on wheels and start moving it around?
