Installation 2.2: A BOY FELL OUT OF THE SKY-floor view
Intermedia Installation
2015
A Boy Falling Out of the Sky demonstrates D’Agostino’s unique approach to storytelling in which dark humor and absurdity function as central forces. The Bulgarian Carnival is the pivotal microcosm where repulsion and fascination, the will for appropriation of our senses, and the complexity and idiosyncrasy of human imagination all combine to conflate ‘what we don’t know, but what we think we know’.
The work includes a selection of temporal paintings extracted recently from locations above timberline, handmade wood constructions, photography, mechanized aparatus, replicate clown visage, lattice poems, sewn ceramic and fiber forms, and an original song written and performed by Luke Leavitt/Cop Circles. This effort extends D’Agostino’s infatuation with Dick Higgins and the collaborative infused Fluxus movement.
In collaboration with James Sanders and John Selvidge of the Atlanta Poets Group, Kelly Brewer, Corrina Espinosa, Tyler Christopherson, Carol Helm, Mango Katz, Mia Fagley, Claire Leavitt, Luke Leavitt, Daniel Nilsson, and Mariana Seriska.
