Artist-in-Residence Dawn Roe Exhibits AIRFIELD STUDIES at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport through 10/13

The public is invited to the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport to view Artist-in-Residence Dawn Roe's exhibition at the Gallery, Terminal 2, Departures level. The exhibition titled, Airfield Studies (2013-14), will run through October 13 and is comprised of a grouping of photographic transparencies created as part of the airport's Artist-in-Residence project associated with the development and construction of the South Runway.

A series of visits to the site over the last 13 months have allowed Roe to witness the gradual and dramatic changes occurring throughout the construction process. At the completion of the residency, a suite of artworks in the form of still photographs and digital video will be displayed throughout the airport's terminals as part of the public art collection.

Roe creates multi-panel photographs and video works that ask the viewer to repeatedly consider their perspective response to ambiguous or indefinable spaces by presenting similar or identical imagery in sequence or series. Roe uses the camera to investigate issues of temporality, memory and history with a focus on optical experience.
