Make Room is delighted to present “Infinity Loop”, an immersive site-specific installation by artist linn meyers at the gallery’s special project space [ROOM]. Over the course of nearly twenty years, meyers has developed a drawing practice that revolves around the use of vintage graph paper. Initially intended as scaled studies for larger, site-specific projects, these studies have since evolved into a significant and independent body of work.
“Infinity Loop” marks a return to the origins of these drawings, transforming them into a physical environment that both contains and is contained by the artwork. This exhibition represents a “turning-inside-out” of space and scale, inviting viewers to experience the work from within—a true infinity loop, where the artwork and the viewer are intertwined in an endless cycle of reflection and immersion.
The installation is intricately designed around and within meyers’ graph paper drawings, a cornerstone of her studio practice. A curated selection of these works will be integrated into the installation, allowing visitors to feel as though they have stepped inside the artist’s process. The walls of [ROOM] will be adorned with a large-scale wall drawing that envelops viewers, creating an environment reminiscent of the graph paper itself—both precise and expansive.
“Infinity Loop” also serves as a profound exploration of meyers’ interest in architecture and its often unnoticed, yet powerful, influence on human experience. Inspired by the studio process of her architect father—who layered tracing papers to refine his designs—meyers mirrors this method in her art, where each visual edit accumulates to create spaces of both physical and emotional resonance.
The exhibition further delves into the paradox of employing a tool of order, like graph paper, to navigate the chaotic flux of existence. meyers’ journey from a strictly systems-based approach in her early career to a practice that now incorporates improvisation and intuition reflects a dynamic interplay between control and spontaneity.
In “Infinity Loop”, meyers invites the audience to engage deeply with the work, participating in a continuous dialogue between structure and fluidity, between the measurable and the immeasurable. In this space, art, architecture, and the viewer converge, offering a contemplative experience that extends beyond the gallery’s confines.
