BICA School: Mise-en-Abyme
03.13.26 – 04.18.26
Opening Reception: Friday, March 13, 7-10PM
Mise-en-Abyme emerges from two unholy creations in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein: Dr. Frankenstein’s re-animating a body from stolen parts and Captain Walton’s reconstruction of Dr. Frankenstein’s story. Inspired by these parallel acts, the artists in Mise-en-Abyme each assembled a set of artifacts over the course of three readings of Frankenstein, then received a different artist’s fragments with which to reconstruct reality. The result is a body of work that brings new life to each other’s visions—though what form that life takes will be a mystery.
