About the Exhibition:
For her exhibition at Hillyer, Bishop has created a large-scale installation work complemented by a new series of sculptures that serve as a continued examination of form and space within her art practice. One of Bishop’s key interests with this exhibition was to create a psychological space that directly focuses on human response and feeling. In this case she focuses on the importance of balance by piling and dispersing several tons of salt throughout the gallery. A full color catalog accompanies the exhibition.
