SCAD Museum of Art presents Platform as Platform, an exhibition of Sarah Crowner's largest installation to date, a site-specific structure that stretches a span of nearly 230 feet. Fabricated from custom-made terracotta tiles created in Guadalajara, Mexico, the floor-based work echoes the accumulative repetition of the building’s historic brick masonry, while the tiles’ colourful, glossy glaze and wavy design form a vast, dynamic ground that seems to extend into the horizon.Crowner welcomes viewers to stand on, walk across, or even dance around the light-refracting composition, encouraging an experience that shifts our relationship to painting.
