RAE BK Opens Five-Room Exhibition ‘Faraday Cage’ in Upstate New York

Summary

  • ‘Faraday Cage’ invites viewers to step into a world of personal and political unease
  • The exhibition is a fusion of diaristic murals, video installations and domestic objects

Artiste RAE BK, a mainstay of the downtown New York City art community, has ventured far from his usual surroundings for his latest artistic endeavor. His new immersive exhibit, titled Faraday Cage, deviates from traditional gallery settings and is instead housed within a modest, nondescript prefabricated house in upstate New York. The five-room exhibition, which debuted on August 16, invites visitors to enter a realm of personal and political disquiet, featuring his trademark collection of sprayed and salvaged characters.

The exhibition blends wall murals, video displays, and everyday items transformed into eerie art pieces. Robotic figures represent missing relationships, while warped statues mirror the strained dynamics of a society divided. In this setting, the artist navigates his personal identity within a culture facing crises, technological advancements, and what is referred to in a press release as a “digital dark age.

As a fervent admirer, I’m excited to share that RAE BK has transformed his personal haven into an engaging public test, a dynamic exhibit that merges artist, artwork, and audience in a compelling fusion. This thought-provoking exhibition invites us to grapple with the turbulence of modern life, probing questions about our reality when the world seems to spin out of control. The show runs until November 23rd, offering an immersive experience that’s not to be missed!
