Artists Lea Nickless and Conrad Hamather will present "La Maison du Désir/The House of Desire," a collaborative installation featuring a pop-up boutique and objects which reference the luxury goods industry. Atelier garment collections, monoprints and a video time-lapse drawing continue the dialogue between the digital and the body. The exhibition also debuts an atmospheric pop-up floor designed by Keith Frutiger, Atlanta-based design guru.

Conrad Hamather has been creating sculpture and installation work with a discourse on body and architecture for the last two decades. A faculty member at the School of The Art Institute of Chicago, Hamather teaches in the Department of Fashion Design. 

Artist and curator Lea Nickless is interested in the unseen, the subliminal, with what is beneath the surface. Her monoprints and a time-lapse video feature layers of pigment, shape and text.
