Rough Gems: Object Empathy opening day

  • Union Hall 1750 Wewatta Street, Suite 144 Denver, CO, 80202 United States (map)

Do inanimate objects invoke empathy? In a material world, humans collect, buy, lose, trade, create things. We cherish objects and pass emotional sensibilities to lifeless materials. Object Empathy curated by Kiah Butcher features three Colorado-based artists. Interdisciplinary artist Alejandra Abad, designer and photographer Marco Cousins, and painter Daniel Granitto explore and reimagine sentimentality through intimate and personal practices. Following themes of ancestry, individual experience, and family, personal effects are displayed alongside curated artwork as ‘human artifacts’ building a bridge between empathy and objectivity.
