Dustin Yellin brings movement to everyday matter in his self-described “window sandwiches,” an installation for New York City Ballet’s third annual Art Series on display at Feb. 12, 19 and 27.
The installation is a small part of a larger project called “Psychogeographies,” a group of human figures made of drawings, cut up books and magazines, paint, even trash Yellin finds in the street, frozen in motion in thick glass blocks made of several glass panels.
“I think of them sort of like 3,000-pound microscope slides, with the DNA of our culture, in images, trapped inside the layers,” Yellin told New York Times reporter Michael Cooper.
Yellin is the founder of Pioneer Works, an art center in Red Hook, Brooklyn.
