SUMMARY:Patterns + Pieces: New Work By Janine Brown Opening Reception at Silvermine Galleries
DESCRIPTION:Silvermine Galleries presents a solo exhibition by a versatile artist whose recent work embraces home economics and kitchen chemistry to create home-cooked composite materials. The materials are stitched together and sculpted to critique myths of the domestic space\, women\, and capitalism. Janine Brown’s Patterns and Pieces: Recipes of Home runs through July 11. The opening reception is on Sat.\, June 8\, 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Brown’s current body of work is informed by the history of the home economics movement which started in 1899. The movement used science as a basis for female-led innovation in the home. Her work brings science to her studio by using kitchen chemistry to cook biodegradable plastic and rubber composites to encapsulate kitchen leftovers\, family financial statements\, U.S. currency\, and flowers. The composites are used to create objects that given the right circumstances can be freed from their myths when the materials biodegrade. \n
