"blue sky, green grass”
BULK Space and Room Project curated Cydney to produce a month-long installation in Room Project’s storefront windows at 6513 Woodward Ave., Detroit, MI. Cydney painted the space, sourced and arranged the featured objects, and created 10 new paintings for the vignettes.
On view from May – June 2021, “Blue Sky, Green Grass” offers a moment of tranquility, nostalgia, and play. Centered around two paintings “Juneteenth (Teenth)” and “Gardening Man”, the installation invites the viewer into an immersive and verdant world that is complete with live plants, atmospheric paintings, and outdoor accessories, that all flourish under the sun.
During a current time of social distancing and growing collective anxieties, the vignette is a grounding reminder that our rich existence is cradled between blue sky and green grass.
