Central to Lyla Rye’s practice is the oft-unacknowledged, but constant, influence of architecture on our mood and behavior. Using strategies of architectural scale with slowness, subtlety, and material shifts, her installations create embodied encounters with space that unfurl over time. Alongside Rye’s immersive three-channel video installation, A Meditation, this exhibition presents three recent series in embroidery, collage, and video animation that explore various modes of representation to reveal when illusions of space break down.
