The COMPOUND is an artist run space that endeavors to provoke innovative ideas in an atmosphere full of swarming and bristling creativity. We exhibit the work of both emerging and established artists.
(August 16, 2008-September 8, 2008)
When we communicate with other people we are often challenged in many ways. Differences in language, gender, and personal experience, all contribute to our diverse nature of understanding and ways of thinking. We express ourselves through a complex system of interaction. Body language, eye contact, touch, and smell are lost over the Internet, phones, and satellite signals-often resulting in communicative misunderstandings.
With so many ways to reach people in our global environment many of us feel disconnected and isolated within this web of communication gaps. Six artists have contributed work that expresses their frustration or joy in human attempts to communicate.
