New at the Knox
In the large west room of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery's 1905 building, an immense pit of sand sits smack in the middle of the floor. In a constant motorized motion of creation and erasure, a metal bar sweeps across the circular sand-pit, creating perfect grooves on half of the desert surface and completely smoothing them away on the other.

Her works go by the name of self-portraits, but are ultimately self-contained symbolic worlds that often feature a woman who loosely resembles the artist.
