About the Exhibition
Edra Soto’s work seeks to provide an engaging space that erases boundaries between the audience, the artist, and the work of art. Expanding on interest in architectural interventions, Soto presents Screenhouse, a freestanding social structure influenced by traditional garden gazebo models.
