Shelley Miller: The Rise and Fall
Montreal-based artist Shelley Miller transformed the ceiling of the New Media Gallery using hand-carved aluminum cake pans. Reminiscent of traditional tin ceilings, this installation took on the appearance of an ornate vaulted ceiling more common to a Romanesque cathedral. For the last few years, Miller has been transforming everyday domestic materials (especially culinary items) into elegant and often monumental forms. Her installation also referenced home decorating trends where consumers substitute hand-crafted ornamental architectural fixtures with mass-produced imitations easily purchased at local home improvement stores.
