Lukas Schooler

Schooler’s most recent work draws inspiration from the evolution of the city and how these changes and processes affects the city dwellers. The city is both a calculated, structural machine as well as an imbalanced, constantly changing variable. The city dwellers are both the impetus to the evolution as well as the victims to growth, decay, and obsolescence. Schooler’s installations, sculptures, videos, and performances place the viewers in such a position that they can see both a micro-view of their contemporary time and a macro-view of a time past. It is in this position that viewers can begin drawing connections to their own personal narratives and come to a better understanding of their role within the metropolis.
