The exhibition ‘Meet me at the Center of the Earth’ by Chicago-based artist Nick Cave recently opened at the Fowler Museum. The presentation consists of 35 of his soundsuits, which are sculptures made by multi-layered mixed-media and are named for the sounds they create when worn. Influenced by African and Caribbean rituals as well as haute couture, Cave’s work explores the ideas of transformation, myth and identity. The traveling exhibition is now open till May 30, 2010.

    Can’t say that I am intrigued in the slightest by the design of the suits but I would love to hear the sounds they make. Too bad there is no video.
