DAISY CHAIN : a video zine -- mapping connections between artists, their ideas and creative work HD

With support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities presents: DAISY CHAIN "Daisy Chain is a series of short vignettes documenting the candid and illuminating perspectives of 9 national and regional artists during this time of re-entry. The name refers to the traditional string of daisies threaded together by their stems, as well as the contemporary wiring scheme by the same name used in electronics and engineering. In this time of re-entry, when we are cautiously emerging from a year in isolation, and also merging back into action at breakneck speed, Daisy Chain offers the opportunity for contemplation in its assemblage of artists, art, and ideas. It explores the ties that bind us, the past and the future, and the loose ends. Perhaps as important, it alludes to surprising and new combinations, and a renewed capacity to find joy." -- Amanda Krugliak, project curator Daisy Chain features: Ruth Buentello, Abigail DeVille, Hubert Massey, Shanna Merola, Scott Northrup, David Opdyke, Shani Peters, Sheida Soleimani, Jeffrey Augustine Songco, and curator Amanda Krugliak.
