April 17, 2016 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm
Incorporating the spacious interior and many windows of Headlands' third floor Project Space, Bay Area artist Cybele Lyle’s exhibition works from a queer perspective to explore the unknown by building multiple architectures and rooms within rooms. Evoking the emotionally intimate and inhabitable language of “home,” Lyle produces walls, small objects, and furniture, and incorporates projections, prints, fabrics and other materials into these constructed spaces. From the outset, Lyle’s project articulates an emotional reality—one of privacy, warmth, safety, and intimacy—that always confronts the vulnerability of what is made public and visible. Through this investigation, Adventures in Solitude intentionally conflates the physical and emotional, and blurs the boundaries between form and feeling. Project Space is free and open to the public Sunday–Thursday, 12–5PM. Visitors are invited into Project Space to engage with Lyle's exhibition throughout its various stages of making. From March 13–April 16 the exhibition will be in-progress. The exhibition will be in its final state from April 17–28.
