Exhibition: Stephanie Syjuco

Stephanie Syjuco: Particulate Matter (Things, Thingys, Thingies)
September 7 – October 23

Gallery 400 in Chicago


"Syjuco’s handmade versions of objects designed by users of the free 3-D modeling program Google SketchUp exist somewhere between the bootleg, the copy, and the translation. Modeled from online designs that seem to lack value or utility, Syjuco’s refashioned versions explore the handmade in the digital-era of design, uniqueness found even within the copy, and collaboration’s relationship to outsourcing, as well as labor, authorship, and value."
