RANDY NIESSEN: Vertigo (Opening Reception)

**Exhibition Runs: March 16 to April 7, 2012**

**Opening Reception: March 16, 7-10pm**

Vertigo will transform the UAS Satellite Gallery into a vortex of colourful lines, proposing an experience of motion without movement. Exploring the boundaries of sculpture and painting, the installation plays off the idea of “fact or fiction,” using two-dimensional materials to mimic three-dimensional objects and investigating the transition between the two.
