At PostmastersROMA

The show, The Artists Family, dances with mythology, archetypes, psychology, art, theatre and the entangled relationships between the body, history and culture. Layered and entangled, these motifs come together in the multi-material sculptures and wall works.

The embroideries on view are reconfigured, fragmented, and abstracted parts of the costumes of the Ballets Russes which were originally designed by Picasso, de Chirico, Delaunay, Goncharova, Larionov, and Matisse among others.

Smart's restructured textiles adorn the sculptures in the exhibition. Their heads, made out of bronze, are archetypal and mythological personages.

The sculptures are a place of connecting and layering of materials and meanings. The costumes have their own significance, and here they shed their primary function and become an integral part of the sculpture’s subject, made in bronze.

On view until June 21
