Jim Lee, Ossuary for the Agile One, Photography, 2019

Twenty-two Triangle-based artists traverse seascapes, dreamscapes, space-scapes, and soundscapes that span—out, up, inward, and underground—from the moment of a death.

Visual, sound, literary, and multidisciplinary creators explore their lived experiences of loss: loss of a loved one, a culture, an identity, a pet, a neighborhood, a potted fern, a coral reef. How do these deaths connect us to rage, to echo, to breath, to hauntology, to the yellow Dollar General Sign on a hill once-wooded?

Why do we prototype? To validate and/or communicate an idea. To advocate. But also to unlock creativity.

With the PROTOTYPE exhibition, Pop Box Gallery challenged Triangle area artists to do all those things with each of the artists beginning with the same form - a pentaprism.
