Collaborative Installation - Jenny Hynes + Dan Homer

Receptions:
September 13, 2013
October 11, 2013
The collaborative installation by Jenny Hynes and Dan Homer investigates the unstable nature of shared histories in the context of a fractured upbringing, which culminated in the death of Jenny and Dan’s mother. Jenny Hynes works on silk because of the ethereal quality relating to the delicate nature of existence. Dan Homer transforms everyday objects like old windows and jugs into sculpture, using collage techniques to question and explore the vaguely mythic quality of memory and possibility. In addition a collaborative video will play, exploring similar themes. The pieces in the collaborative installation are conversational in nature, incorporating and reconciling the multiple life trajectories of siblings Jenny Hynes and Dan Homer in the context of their shared past.
Dan Homer: Dan Homer currently works as a social justice attorney. He also earned an MFA in creative writing from San Francisco State University. Dan is very active in social justice, writing, and playing music. This is his first public showing of work.
