Chiaroscuro

Multidisciplinary Cincinnati-based fine artists Sean Mullaney and Justin West collaborated on creating a sensory environment in one space at the Clifton Cultural Arts Center for the exhibit Chiaroscuro. The room-sized canvas onto which they refract light by changing the vibrations in sheets of moving Mylar allows the artists to explore the themes of light and dark. Being immersed within the space allows visitors to not only ponder the work but also engage with the constant fluctuations between the two and how they shape our understanding of space. 


Opening reception: 6-8 p.m. Friday. Through March 14. Clifton Cultural Arts Center, 3711 Clifton Ave., Clifton, cliftonculturalarts.org.
