Developed by founding AEIVA director Lisa Tamiris Becker, along with the UAB College of Arts and Sciences Dean’s Office and Department of Art and Art History, Facing the Hyperstructure is a large-scale, site-specific installation by New York artist Jessica Angel. This ambitious project, which occupies the entire AEIVA lobby and Hess Family Lecture Hall, is the end result of Jessica Angel’s 15-week residency overseen by AEIVA Curator John Fields, with additional assistance from UAB students, staff, and volunteers.
