2015 Season III

 

Artist Statement

Jeremy D Olson builds assemblages from everyday objects and events, particularly those of his surroundings, turning them into machines that include the viewer as a vital component. These machines articulate interfaces between modern subjects and their environment. The use of mechanical processes and analytical techniques in the making of these machines exacerbates and magnifies the conflicts that exist between the everyday entities that make them up, and the systems of control and regulation that they, and we, are entangled in.
