Sometimes it’s easy to forget just how boundless human creativity can be. We slip into our day-to-day routine, doing what we need to do to pay the bills, and we forget. We forget to look for and find the beauty in the everyday details. We forget to see the really interesting shit.
Do Ho Suh has not forgotten. With his absurdly inspiring exhibit, Passage, at the CAC through Sept. 11, Suh pulls us out of our “life is okay” fog and gently wipes the sleep from our eyes. He implores us to take a closer look at two things we see everywhere: string and rooms. He turns both into marvels of human creation.
