MFA alum Robert Reed and Professor Mary Babcock are the two
of the genius brains behind Juxtapose, a wearable art exhibition in honor of
Honolulu fashion month. The event took
place on Oct. 19th at CoXist studios. Young up-and-coming designers fashioned pieces
made out of items found around the city, including bottle caps and aluminum
ornaments. Reed was especially
interactive with the show as a designer, performance artist, juror, and creator
of an installation designed specifically for the show.
"Inflatadiva" |
Reed’s work is extending beyond the small island borders of
Hawaii to the Indianapolis Museum of Art where his piece titled “Inflatadiva”
is being featured in an exhibition.
Indianapolis isn’t the only city that has caught wind of Reed’s talent,
St. James, New York has found our talented alum as well. The Smithtown Township Arts Council is
currently displaying Reed’s work in the ChildhoodMemories: Juried Fine Art Exhibition, which runs from Oct. 19th-Nov.
23rd. Reed is the only artist
from Hawaii featured in the exhibit among many other talented artists from
around the U.S.
