Todd Mattei: Healing

September 9—October 15, 2011

In the Project Room, Carrie Secrist Gallery is pleased to present a two-channel video installation by Todd Mattei titled Healing (2011). Using fragmentary images of lighting fixtures, the piece explores the body’s relationship to time and ritual. With the work Mattei creates a mythology of the circuit, the respiratory system, and lightness.

Todd Mattei received his MFA from the University of Illinois-Chicago in 2005. He has exhibited nationally at the Milwaukee Art Museum; Publico, Cincinnati; and Gallery 400, Chicago.
