Description

kaph (the palm of one’s hand) is a site-specific installation by American artist Ann Hamilton for the Contemporary Arts Museum’s Brown Foundation Gallery. Known for her poetic, material laden installations, Hamilton’s art involves all the senses -- vision, touch, smell, hearing, and even taste -- assailing viewers from a variety of approaches and inviting them to share the artist’s singular, metaphorical vision.
