Susan Giles at Mixed Greens


Chicago artist Susan Giles works with paper to build historically important buildings, splicing them together to make new hybrids. One architectural style is blurred into another as a metaphor for the experience of traveling. When ceiling mounted, scale models of castles, towers, and churches are installed upside down to reference the primal architecture of a cave’s stalactites.
