Far Sighted at The Shirley Project Space, Brooklyn, NY, June 15 – Sept 10, 2023

Far Sighted is an exhibition by interdisciplinary artist and science enthusiast, Heidi Neilson. Neilson has a nuanced way of investigating our relationship with satellites through her art practice. The conceptually-driven artworks pull the viewer into the world of satellites with intelligence, beauty and understated humor. Far Sighted shows us satellites as compelling machines and sculptural objects whilst acknowledging and revealing their functions and purposes. Viewers will leave Far Sighted with new insights into our orbiting robots. More information at The Shirley Project Space.
