Beatrice Glow: Once the Smoke Clears

 

Baltimore Museum of Art

“Beatrice Glow is a New York- and Bay Area-based multi-sensory and interdisciplinary artist whose work explores the social history of plants. For her first exhibition in a major U.S. museum, Glow delves into the unseen and unsavory sociohistorical and ecological realities underlying the tobacco industry’s veneer of luxury through her digitally printed and embroidered silk textiles, VR-sculpted and 3D-printed objects, watercolors, and scent experiences.” artbma.org

I worked with artist Beatrice Glow and Exhibition Designer Dave Zimmerman to conceptualize and design this large scale mural, then produced and installed the wallpaper. I designed, produced and installed all other graphics, including the title wall and labels.

Collaborators: Sarah Cho, Virginia Anderson, Dave Zimmerman, Kristine Ferg, Rachel Minier
