Locust Projects Art Basel Opening Night
Locust Projects Celebrates Art Basel from World Red Eye Films on Vimeo.
Miami, FL – December 3, 2019 – Guests gathered in Miami Design District on Tuesday night for the opening night of Locust Projects during Art Basel. The space features a site-specific installation by Houston-based artist Trenton Doyle Hancock titled I Made a Mound City, which he arrived at by re-arranging the letters in Miami Dade County. The focal point, is a massive, ceiling-height sculpture of The Legand, Mound #1. Visitors can enter the structure through its fabric pelt-like cape entrance to view The Color Crop Experience, an animation of the artist encountering The Legend in the forest. The exhibition also features early hand-drawn pages from Trenton’s forthcoming 400-page graphic novel, The Moundverse, videos and animations, and a pop-up comic book store in the Project Room.
