MUSA - "making" in the US

The MUSA show at Cozart's Antiques in west downtown Raleigh was varied, intriguing and successful in presenting artistic takes on the issues behind the show's concept - work and making things in the post-industrial age. This picture album accompanies a review post at Raleigh Rambles.
The show's entrance - it was staged in a former furniture factory. Matt's birds, visible on wall, are featured at the end of this post.



Furniture factory paint shop - the art was installed withing the context of the factory setting.
