JO.55, the inaugural edition of Josh Owen's solo exhibition, is a modular, traveling installation project in collaboration with RZLBD (Reza Aliabadi, Toronto, ON) and ARBR Studios (Rochester, NY). The show debuts with 55 display boxes, one for each year of Owen's life, allowing for the show to be a continuously evolving snapshot of his career as a designer and educator.
With inspiration from vintage science fiction and a meticulous eye for detail, Lee Hoag's sculptures are assembled with wood, metal, ceramics, fabric and other mixed materials. Together, they become a strange but appealing family of otherworldly objects, challenging our skills of recognition and imagination.
