In conjunction with Terrain Exhibitions and the City of Chicago’s Year of Public Art, Space | Place is a site-specific public art exhibition featuring outdoor installations for the 3rd Terrain Biennial, from decorative gardens to street art. Terrain democratizes art by making it publicly accessible and free for viewers through placement in unconventional outdoor spaces. This inaugural Terrain  Biennial in Detroit will transform sites in Detroit’s Island View and West Village neighborhoods, exploring placemaking in public spaces.

 

Featuring Jamie Hall, Asia Hamilton, and Allen Moore. Co-Organized by Janice Bond, Eli Gold, and Sadie Woods.

Asia Hamilton, 1312 Mt Elliott St

In her 20-year career as a photographer, Asia Hamilton has cultivated a talent for capturing moments the way they are -- those rare, raw and precious glimpses of life that exist in between poses and pretense. She specializes in portraits, landscapes, textures and nudes and is drawn to existing, untouched composition, which she says, is a reflection of her own authenticity. She has shot celebrities and worked as a photojournalist for the Detroit Free Press and produced special projects for major corporations, including Ford Motor, Co.
