My Dreams Have Running Water
About the Exhibition
Blending metalwork, digital art and surreal ideas, Dylan Collins' mixed media exhibit invites visitors to see everyday objects in a completely new way. The collection features several mixed media sculptures that blend traditional and digital art, steel fabrication, blacksmithing and casting. Collins' artwork aims to transform everyday items into whimsical and bizarre pieces that challenge preconceived notions of 21st-century life. The exhibition includes pieces such as 'Inflationary Measures,' made by pyrography, laser engraving and paint on plywood, and 'Nothing Happened,' a cast-aluminum school desk with engraving. The heart of the exhibition explores what Collins calls 'the collision of one stable, familiar belief system with the volatile realities of the 21st century.'
