Details, Tell Me Something I Don’t Already Know by Carter Kustera.
Carter Kustera’s family washroom, Tell Me Something I Don’t Already Know,
is based on information anonymously provided by Arts Center members.
Over 900 members sent in their first name and a brief sentence about
themselves for use in this project. Kustera harvested such gems as, “Vue is living his dreams,” “Marjorie is a 100–year–old fairy tale
princess,” “Bob won’t admit that the squirrel has beaten him,” and “Laura paints the world.” Imagining what each person looked like based
on the descriptions, Kustera painted hundreds of silhouettes–humorous,
serene, and stern–that cover the walls of the room. The counter, carved
into the shape of a profile, supports a clear glass lavatory, while the
mirror above is etched with an invitation for viewers to: “Tell me
something about yourself that I don’t already know.” Artist(s)Related ProgramsFunding/SponsorArts/Industry is made possible by Kohler Co. Terms Of Use |
