As part of the grand opening of the Stony Island Arts Bank, Rebuild Foundation is proud to present a site-specific installation by Portuguese artist Carlos Bunga.
Bunga creates process oriented works in various formats - sculptures, paintings, drawings, performances, video, and above all site-specific installations that refer to and intervene in their immediate architectural surroundings. Straddling the divide between sculpture and painting, Bunga’s deceptively delicate works are characterized by an intense study of the combination of color and materiality, while at the same time emphasize the performative aspect of the creative act.
Under the Skin was commissioned as part of the inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial by the Rebuild Foundation.
