OCTOBER 4:
Ashley Palmer: Safe Space
Safe Space is an interactive installation offering relief from the sensory overload of human-built environments. It responds to the idea of “relaxation deserts,” places without access to nature and saturated with noise, artificial light, and constant stimulation. Drawing on the memory of childhood forts, the piece invites visitors into a private space formed by foliage for quiet refuge.
--
Ashley Palmer is fascinated by the primal instincts of humans and how they are misplaced in the modern world. As an artist and designer, she creates contemplative spaces and objects that combat the stress of living in artificial environments to evoke wonder and connection with nature.
