Image Description:
A very tall arched entryway painted light grey separates two gallery spaces. Looking down the hallway of the gallery space through the threshold we see works on and off the wall from behind a beaded curtain of 6 equidistant strands that hang from the top of the arch to the ground, we can’t tell that they are chains of coffee beans from here. They are spaced roughly more than 1 but less than 2 feet apart so one could squeeze between them but bringing the chains into motion is inevitable and intended.
