Ruby Green Contemporary Art Center Nashville, Tennessee Nashville Scene - CRITIC's PICKS February 9, 2006 Fiona Kinsella & Mariah Johnson: "GOOD HOUSEKEEPING" Canadian artist Kinsella was in last summer’s "Eponymous" group show at Zeitgeist; her assemblages of emu eggs, velvet and lace stood out as the most exquisite objects on display. She returns to Ruby Green this month for a full-fledged show featuring works in which wedding cakes serve as a vehicle for ruminations on identity; in one potent image, an array of dental tools and a mass of hair erupt out of a square of lily-white cake. She’s paired here, in a show appropriately titled "Good Housekeeping," with Mariah Johnson, whose paintings incorporate fabric and images of Southern domesticity. In one series, Johnson arranges stacks of colorful bed sheets and pillowcases to create sculptural forms reminiscent of abstract paintings. The show opens with a reception, 6-9 p.m. Feb. 11, with an artist talk at 7 p.m. —DAVID MADDOX / JONATHAN MARX Nashville Scene |
