Now in Michigan: Bushwick art show exploring tech’s bodily harm

A show that went up through May and June in Bushwick’s SLAG Gallery is now showing in four different galleries in Grand Rapids, Mich.

The show is called “Preliminary Studies: RSI – T,” which stands for “Repetitive Strain Injury – Technology.”

See the pieces in the show on the SLAG website.

Naomi Lev, the curator in Grand Rapids, said the show is inspired by the way that repetitive uses of technology changes our bodies over time, in a report on WZZM 13 News.

Lev said she was interested in bringing Brooklyn works to Michigan because of a personal interest she’d developed in the topic, after realizing that using technology so much was starting to hurt her.

A panel discussion on July 2 explored, “How Art Describes Evolution as it’s Happening.”
