The curatorial theme for Possessed is inspired by the rampant trend of “selfies” by viewers at art exhibitions. The curator, Lisa Rockford, invited artists that create striking, colorful, provocative, 3-dimensional artworks, to creatively respond to the narcissism of the viewer. Artists were asked to consider how they would create an installation that will entice viewers to “Strike a pose” next to their work; either honoring, or critiquing this selfie trend.
