Blade Study presents Andrew Woolbright’s Baldanders. This is the second in an ongoing series of performances in which the artist, educator, and writer considers the format of interview as a form of sculpture. The exhibitions’ title references a German mythical figure, Baldanders, who changes its physical form the longer a conversation continues. Woolbright’s multimedia performance involves prosthetics, video, and sculpture that shifts the conversants into new forms over the course of their conversations.
