Gallery Talk: Thursday, September 7 from 12:30 to 1:30 PM
Reception: Friday, September 8 from 5:30 to 8:00 PM
The Gallery at UTA is pleased to present Joseph Farbrook: A Mirror in the Void – Reflections of Consciousness, an investigation into sentience expressed through digitally designed and fabricated forms integrated with experimental screen and projection technologies.
The exhibition includes video sculptures, virtual reality, interactive pieces with live streamed text, videos, and animations projected on mirrors and viewers’ faces, a 3d printed video sculpture with autostereoscopic screen, and an immersive 4-channel video projection room.
Joseph Farbrook states, “Art, a reflection of consciousness, is like a mirror held up to the experience of being human. This body of work is specifically about consciousness, and so it is a mirror held up to a reflection.”
There will be an opening reception on Friday, September 8 from 5:30 to 8 pm with brief remarks by the artist at 6:30 pm. In addition, a gallery talk/tour conducted by Joe Farbrook will take place on Thursday, September 7 from 12:30 – 1:30 pm. The exhibition, reception, and talk are free and open to the public.

To us, the perfect day is spent exploring and experiencing all kinds of art. That’s the idea behind AMA Art Hop! On our event calendar and in our social media, if you see an AMA Art Hop event listing, that means it’s taking place outside of the museum and is being organized by a cultural partner, school/university, or professional visual arts venue or space in or near Arlington. We love to share information about other visual arts exhibitions and festivals that are taking place in our area so you can discover them, too!
We’ve also been on the hunt for a directory of all the public art in Arlington. While these lists on their own may not be comprehensive, together they paint a great picture (see what we did there?) of how active our city’s public art scene has become:
