About
Virginia Fleck makes sensory objects and environments from reclaimed materials imbued with notions of luck, chance, and magical thinking. Fleck’s artworks have a baroque upcycled aesthetic that transcends the utility of the materials; sparkling chains of can tabs become oversized chandeliers that generate soothing moiré patterns, and spherical bingo cages are retooled into
hand-cranked sound baths, each with a unique sonic signature. Our senses provide the most recognizable sense of self, and Fleck’s intricately-crafted environments explore embodied experience as a way to mitigate the
anxiety of uncertainty.
