I’m incredibly excited to share install images from my solo show, Soft shoulder at Everybody in Tucson, AZ. The gallery returned to Tucson after opening a space in Chicago. Tucson is so happy to have Everybody back home and I am grateful to work with them. It’s a great space and I am so proud of Soft shoulder!
I am honored to have an exhibition essay written by Lauren R. O’Connell, Assistant Curator of Contemporary Art at The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art. Here’s an excerpt:
“Soft shoulder presents a series of sculptural situations by artist Sara Hubbs that use a variety of medium and are conceptually grounded in the transformative qualities of relationships. At the center of Hubbs’ installations are vessel-like glass objects molded from plaster casts of plastic structures shaped using her daughter’s toy packaging—Barbie and the Rockers, Hello Kitty, LOL dolls, and so on. As a parent working from home, the discarded plastic became available material loaded with meaning and prompted the artist to consider the cyclical nature of inanimate objects and human relationships.”
