From the organizer:
"Home: I Guess That This Must be the Place" traces Patricia Brett’s path from a poor childhood in Ravenna, Ohio, through three distinct careers that have shaped her artistic vision and her understanding of home. It explores the threads that have woven through her life: family, Catholicism, hard work, emigration, generational trauma, and the shadow of BRCA1 cancer risk. These themes find expression through Brett’s chosen medium of monochromatic cast paper relief, a process that allows her to capture both presence and absence, memory and substance.
This site-specific installation unfolds in three sections, reflecting the different chapters of Brett’s professional journey. The cast reliefs place an emphasis on the tension between forms and highlight “the spaces between”.
The Sculpture Center holds particular resonance for this exhibition. Once the workplace for the stone carvers of Lake View Cemetery, and later home to an architectural firm, this space echoes her own careers, and upon her move to Cleveland Heights, Lake View became her new Central Park.
