BOSTON, MA - Fresh
from Emerson College, artist M’Kenzy Cannon and curator Maya Rubio bring the
intimacy of personal space to the Mills Gallery. Formed through video, photo,
and object work, PLEASE LET ME IN, urges gallery-goers to excavate and
co-create the exhibition’s narrative. PLEASE LET ME IN will be the fourth
exhibition in the 1:1 Curatorial Initiative series presented in the
Mills Gallery at Boston Center for the Arts.
Installed deep in the gallery, a
living bedroom will welcome visitors to explore an unknown stranger’s most
intimate space and its hidden secrets. Large scale projections with warped home
interiors and found object creations will push guests into “the realm of the
Other.”
PLEASE LET ME IN is a piece of
object-spatial theatre, an environmental performance in which gallery-goers
become a character in the sticky world of existential mystery constructed by
Cannon and Rubio, gathering the threads between self and divine, intimate and
unknowable, bedroom and black hole.
Like past exhibitions
in the 1:1 Curatorial Initiative series, PLEASE LET ME IN, presents a
collaborative project between one curator and one artist. The Public Reception
for PLEASE LET ME IN at 6pm on August 12, will be part of a full day of BCA
programming. BCA will also be hosting Open Studios in the Artist Studio
Building next door and a Project Room Show with BCA Studio Resident
Karmimadeebora McMillan within the Mills Gallery.
