GOING TO ALL THE WRONG PLACES: PETER FREDERIKSEN

Steve Turner is pleased to present Going to all the wrong places, a solo exhibition by Chicago-based Peter Frederiksen that features embroidered works depicting people at the edge of a precipice. His colorful embroideries highlight an instant in time, right before or right after an action. One shows a foot at the starting line for a footrace and another presents feet at the edge of a cliff. In the title work, the fingers of someone who is not visible are desperately clinging to the top edge of a building. The works are inspired by the Golden Age of animation and they elicit both nostalgia and a sense of foreboding.
