((free)) — Mike Kelley Architecture
For this exhibition, Kelley created a sprawling, immersive environment that spanned the museum’s galleries. The architectural elements of the show were a testament to his ability to transform spaces into experiential works of art.
Based on the fictional city of Kandor from Superman comics—the capital of Krypton that was shrunk and preserved in a bottle—Kelley constructed glowing, sculptural cities under glass bell jars. These are not traditional models; they are kaleidoscopic, biomorphic structures made of resin and light. mike kelley architecture
