Installation 101
July, 2011
Elana Herzog

Elana Herzog makes "sculptural drawings" using chenille bedspreads, old clothing, and common household materials. Her works consider, among other things,  the geometry of spaces, our existence within them, and the passage of time. She is a lecturer at Yale, and is represented by LMak Projects in New York. For the Schick Art Gallery installation, she took her original inspiration from the rectilinear space of the gallery, and developed her ideas in collaboration with the students.
