GLEAN
@ Oregon Contemporary ︎Portland, Oregon
“GLEAN is a juried art program that taps into the creativity of artists to inspire people to think about their consumption habits, the waste they generate, and the resources they throw away. In light of the global crisis, the 2020 GLEAN program shifted to be adaptive to the times and further prioritizing the safety of our artists.”
The sculptures were created with imported Asian food products to think about the words imported / deported. Who or what is allowed to stay? Who or what has value?
