SOHO20 Chelsea is pleased to announce Nelleke Nix’s Hot Spots and Canaries: an installation about our changing world including a participatory work titled, Open the Door Richard.

“ As an artist who considers her work a continuum Nix creates connections that link past, present and future  both in content and in the application of  traditional and new or experimental media. Traveling the world, she notices the manner in which men and women add creative details and improvements to their surroundings. Additions for the better and on occasion for the worst but always, in her eyes, containing a certain beauty.

In Hotspots and Canaries she observes what is occurring in our changing world. Offspring is born. Vegetation sprouts. But, as in coalmines where canaries warned for dangerous conditions, there are the signs of negative development. A participatory work, for which a call to artists went out to candidly voice their positive and negative observations, is aptly titled Open the Door Richard.”
