Lisa Dillin, "Window A," 2010
Lis Dillin, "Under the Desk Escape Unit (UDEU)," 2010
At first glance, this installation resembles the set of the TV sitcom “The Office,” leading one to wonder whether the previous tenant accidentally left this stuff behind. Once one ventures inside, one realizes that it’s meant to be. Similarly, Window A, which resembles vertical blinds, furnishes streaming sunlight, giving those stuck inside the sense of basking in daylight.
Although workplace politics appears to be Lisa’s primary focus, her work actually addresses more profound artistic concerns such as perception, fabrication and accessibility. Her works question accessibility both “metaphorically” and "actually," in terms of the workers/artists capacity to achieve career goals.
